Forgot Samsung Phone Password, Can I Unlock a Samsung Phone on a PC?

Hi all,

 

I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 phone that I forgot the password after recent password change. It is a backup phone and not being used frequently. In fact, I tried all the passcodes, PIN and Pattern I could think of but unfortunately all failed.

 

Does anyone know how to unlock a Samsung phone if I forgot Samsung phone password? I heard it could be done on a Windows PC. Kindly share you insight on this matter. It would be much better to unlock Samsung phone without losing data.

 

Thanks

    Before you even start trying to unlock your Samsung phone after forgot Samsung password, make sure you have everything backed up. If you go straight to a factory reset without backing up your data, you'll lose everything—contacts, pictures, apps, you name it. So, if possible, use Microsoft OneDrive or Google Drive to save your stuff. You can access OneDrive from a computer or another device, and it's a lifesaver when you're in a pinch.

    Elaoine Do you use password manager app for backing up the password? If yes, then you can find all saved passwords from there and try the possible passwords to unlock Samsung phone without losing data if you forgot Samsung phone password. This is the most recommended way!
