In a domain, one or more computers are servers. Network administrators use servers to control the security and permissions for all computers on the domain. This makes it easy to make changes because the changes are automatically made to all computers. Domain users must provide a password or other credentials each time they access the domain. (From Microsoft)

If your computer is not configured as a "Domain Controller", the password that you have set is a local Windows Server password. For resetting a local Windows Server password and regaining access to the system, an efficient third-party Windows Server password recovery tool is the best remedy.

Windows Password Buster is a professional tool that follows a simple, streamlined process to enable you to safely and effectively reset the lost or forgotten administrator account and other users' password of your Windows Server based computer. The software is available as a downloadable ISO image that can be burned to a CD/DVD or USB drive to create a bootable disc. This bootable disc can be used to boot your Windows Server system and reset the password.

You need to follow the steps explained below to reset your Windows Server password using Windows Password Buster:

Step 1: Download and install Windows Password Buster.

Step 2: Burn a bootable password reset CD/DVD or USB flash drive.

Step 3: Reboot locked computer from the burned CD/DVD or USB.
