VERDICT
If pogostick.net didn't exist - we would have to invent it! - pogostick.net
Depends. Use it only if you're technical and need a free, one-off offline Windows password reset and accept zero support. Skip it entirely if you need a vendor, updates, security assurances, or anything for business use.
Low. Based on 7 public sources; evidence is thin and mostly describes the domain, not a commercial product.

Very little user discussion found; one accessibility-forum post notes the tool requires sighted assistance.
“You will need sighted assistance, https://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/”
Compare Pogostick.net (ver:nov 2024) with each alternative.
Guess: free bootable repair toolkit with broader utilities
Guess: commercial Windows password recovery with vendor support
Guess: Windows password-reset software vendor with docs and support

Free, hobbyist Windows password-reset tool on a personal site. Fine for one-off DIY resets; no support, updates, or business case.
