Local accounts, yes. How are you bypassing Microsoft accounts with 2 factor authentication enabled?
Unix and Mac passwords were the same for local accounts before.
Easiest way right now would be to acquire a username password to get into their phone provider, say Verizon. Then log into their Verizon account and move their phone number to a new phone. (this will only require knowledge of their security questions, also a phone not purchased by a card or registered to you if you don’t want it traceable)
Once done then you can reset the password using the unknown password to their Microsoft account using the 2 factor that sends to their phone number…maybe.
Especially on windows 11 we don’t stand much of a chance getting passed.
Likely easier to pick up the password book they wrote all of their passwords down in and accessing them. (Performed by most people over 50 I know)
Edit: also, you will find their Facebook password written there haha
Assuming bitlocker isn’t enabled (Which it probably isn’t since it’s still not default yet AFAIK) boot Linux live USB > access files under user folder on disk
Bitlocker is enabled by default, requiring tpm. Which internal tpm is used by most all devices. Also you won’t get into any commercial devices as the bios will be locked by password, so booting by USB will not happen.
