Windows 10: Can't reset Password

Hello,


I can't remember my password, I have access to my main computer because it is set to use a pin. I remember my pin.

My tablet is a paperweight. It is on password. I can't remember my password.

I click, "Don't remember password"

I get, "enter email address associated with account"

No email comes. Not after a few minutes. Not after a few days.


I click "dont remember password."

I change to, "use phone number"

automatic response says, "this is unavailable right now, please try again later." days later, still the same


I go to account recovery. Fill out form

Get response., Sorry not enough information to help you.


Perhaps there is a problem with Microsoft holding a monopoly on access to all the computers running windows.

I have important information on my computers. If I can't trust you to reset my password when I ask and not have any other way of contacting you and you not giving a damn anyway because people will throw money at you not matter what, then.... perhaps we should all go to Linux.

How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

I will assume that these devices belong to you.

step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

Break command list: Break Commands

Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
