I am the administrator of my computer, yet I want to access the passwords of other users on this computer.
Isn't a program that will show me that password of those users without trying to reset the user's password?

Why would you want to do that?

to wreak havoc on other user accounts. (whose owners &%$£ you off.)

Haven't you met anyone that really ticked you off, and you just wanted some decent revenge?
Well, wreak havoc on their user accounts (moving files to random files (ex. moving a video to the documents folder) and other things)

It's your computer. You can say who uses it or not?

ANYWAYS...
Yes it would be funny. Accessing their accounts and wreaking havoc there. But i don't want to draw attention to myself.
Hence i need a trick, program, etc. to show me the passwords that all the users are using.
Do you know how to do it?

@Gmanlink. Under both Privacy and Data Protection Laws. What you are proposing to do would be illegal.
