What is the main advantage of using a Linux LiveCD for password recovery?

• A. It provides built-in antivirus.
• B. It allows access to change user passwords on Windows systems.
• C. It speeds up Linux system performance.
• D. It automatically backs up all data.

Answer: (B)

Booting from a Linux LiveCD creates an independent, removable-media environment that can access the computer’s hard drive even when the installed OS won’t boot. This lets you mount the Windows partition and use password-reset tools to change Windows user account passwords, enabling access to the system again without knowing the Windows login. The other options aren’t the main benefit because while antivirus, performance, or automatic backups might be features of some tools, they aren’t the core advantage of using a LiveCD for password recovery.
