It's not a hack, just an ordinary command function. Any literate
Windows admin worth their salt knows how to do this.

"The command he used (net user [x] *) is the command for resetting a
password."

And yes, it will work on 7,8,10,11 and others.

It's a primitive command and will literally accept anything passed.
If you do something dense like "net user twat help", it will set the
user password to "help".
