Not a gaming exploit per say, but, as a kid I wasn't allowed to play games on the pc very often, this was windows XP era, which meant parental controls. Super annoying when all you want to do is play Runescape. So, to bypass this bs I would go into safe mode and just flat out remove the user password. Parents couldn't prove or rationalize how I could possible be doing this. Eventually when I got my own user account I would just give myself admin power when ever I wanted to download a game, it was amazing. Thinking back to it, I find it hilarious a 10 year old figured out how to completely break windows security/password protection just to play video games.
