Who uses the Windows 7 password reset disc utility? It's great

Apparently they improved on the XP password reset disc. *Now, with
Windows 7, you can create a small file (initially on a USB stick) that

So in 7 you can create this small file once, email it to yourself,
then if you ever forget your login, you can copy this file to a USB
stick and then get into your Windows 7 account again. *Very cool.
I understand there are utilities to do this as well, but this new (I
think it's new) feature in 7 is very handy.

Even easier is to store you password in an encrypted file on another
drive or USB stick and keep it updated.
