2 TopicsHow to reset Windows 10 password when locked out?
Hey folks, hope everyone's doing well! I've got myself into a bit of a pickle and could really use your collective wisdom. I've been locked out of my Windows 10 computer (yeah, I know, should've written down the password) and I'm scratching my head on how to get back in. Has anyone here been through this and managed to reset their password without being able to log in? I've seen a few methods online involving bootable USB drives and using command prompts, but I'm not super tech-savvy and a bit hesitant to dive into something that seems so complex. I'm looking for a more straightforward, beginner-friendly way to reset my password and get back to my files. If you've got any ideas or step-by-step guides that could help out a fellow Windows user in distress, I'd be super grateful. Thanks [Edit] A few folks asked me if the problem was solved? Yes. The password was reset with the help of Passcue Windows Password Recovery software. Thanks Jack888 for the recommendation!708KViews0likes17CommentsIncorrect password and booting issues
I am running Windows 10 Pro version 1909 build 18363.959 For a few months now, I have occasionally been getting incorrect password but password is correct. If I keep on trying I can get the system to boot. This morning, I had the same problem but system just will not stop saying 'incorrect password'. Then I clicked on switch user, clicked on the same user (not switched) and I got it to accept the password and it booted but I could not open anything. After 5 or so minutes it started switching between blank screen and startbar every 2 or 3 seconds. Ctrl - Alt - Del > restart and it is working... Any ideas? Thanks in advanceSolved1.5KViews0likes3Comments
