If you've forgotten your Windows 10 laptop password and don't have a recovery disk, there are still several methods you can try to reset forgotten laptop password. Here are some options:
Method 1. Use Another Admin Account
If you have another administrator account on the same laptop:
- Log in to the other admin account.
- Open Control Panel > User Accounts > Manage another account.
- Select the locked account and choose Change the password.
- Set a new password and save the changes.
- Log out and log back into your original account with the new password.
Method 2. Use Microsoft Online Account Recovery
If you're using a Microsoft account to log in to Windows 10:
- Go to the Microsoft Password Reset page.
- Follow the steps to reset your Microsoft account password.
- Once reset, use the new password to log in to your laptop.
