Dear friend,

Instead of formatting the whole system in case of forgetting the Windows login password, you should use --PC Login Now-- software. This is simple graphical user interface software.
Just download the software and extract the ISO file from the self-extracting archive. Use USB Boot Device software or similar to install the ISO on USB drive. Boot up with this drive on requirement.
This will clear up the Windows password and after logging in,and you can create a new password.
You can also try -- Kon Boot, Ophcrack, or other similar password resetting software.

Thanks!
