If your computer has multiple accounts and you still remember the passwords of other administrator accounts, you can reset the passwords through other accounts:
- Log in to other administrator accounts.
- Press Win + X and select "Computer Management".
- In "Local Users and Groups" on the left, click "Users".
- Find your user name, right-click it, and select "Set Password".
- Enter the new password, confirm it, and then log in to your administrator account with the new password.
I hope these three methods will help you, and the data on your C drive will not be affected when resetting Windows 10 password without losing data. Wish you good luck!
