Kon-Boot is an application which will silently bypass the authentication process of Windows based operating systems (both 32-bit and 64-bit). Kon-Boot modifies the system kernel while it boots, changes are made temporary only. Rebooting the machine will restore the original contents of Windows kernel and its corresponding authentication procedures.Usage is simple: Load your media (USB/CD/FLOPPY) with Kon-Boot, put it into your computer and start it up!
