What if You Forget Your Password?

Password Security allows three consecutive attempts to
enter your password. If the third attempt is unsuccessful
you can view your Hint and try again.
If you permanently forget your password you will not be
able to access the HD partition. For all intents and purposes,
the HD partition will be rendered unusable, and any data
stored on the HD partition will effectively be lost.

the Reset Password feature. However, this is the option of
last resort because...
