Hi,

I need to log in Access DB by bypassing password because I lost it. Is
there a way to do it? What's the default password for Access, like root
password for Unix?

Appreciated!

It wouldn't be very secure if everyone could bypass the password at any
time, huh? It's a good idea to keep the password in a safe place, just in
case.

The default password is always blank. However, as soon as the password is
set, the default password won't work. Therefore, you need to open the
database with the current password, then remove the password.

HTH.
