If you are a regular user, you can restart your PC, enter the Safe Mode by pressing F8 key right before the Windows logo should appear, enter to the Administrator account and remove the password from your user. If this isn't your case, there isn't much that you can do beside reinstalling the Operating System.

If your computer runs on win 7 or win 8, then you can use Windows Password Key to remove your password.There are only three steps :
1: Download and install Windows Password Key in another accessible PC.
2: Run the downloaded file to install Windows Password Key Standard. You can install it on any PC you have access to.
3: Windows Start menu - From your Microsoft Windows Start Programs menu, select Windows Password Key . It will be launched automatically.
Step4: Using a Windows Password Key bootable CD/DVD to reset Windows password or using a Windows Password Key bootable USB Flash Drive to reset windows password.
