About
Windows Password Kracker is a free software to recover the lost or forgotten Windows password from LM or NTLM Hash.

In such cases 'Windows Password Kracker' can help in recovering the windows password using the simple dictionary crack method.

However you can find good collection of password dictionaries (also called wordlist) here & here.
