How can I unlock hp laptop forgot password without disk Windows 11?
TonyDillion By default, there are more than one administrator accounts on a Windows 11 laptop. If you forgot the password of one admin account, then you can unlock HP laptop with another admin account. This method allows you to reset the password for the locked account without the need for a password reset disk or security questions.
1. Start by logging in to your HP laptop with the secondary administrator account. If you have multiple accounts, select the one with administrative privileges from the login screen.
2. Once logged in, click on the "Start" menu and select "Settings," or press Win + I on your keyboard to open the Settings app.
3. In the Settings window, go to "Accounts" from the left-hand menu, then select "Family & other users."
4. Under the "Other users" section, you’ll see a list of accounts. Find the account you’re locked out of, click on it, and then select "Change account type" to ensure it is still set as a standard or administrator account.
5. Click on the "Reset password" button or, if not directly available, you may need to use the "Manage another account" option to reset the password. Enter a new password and confirm it.
By following these steps, you can easily unlock HP laptop without disk by using another administrator account on your HP laptop running Windows 11.
