  1. Can't reset windows without administrator password


    Its been a long time since i booted up an old windows 10 PC. I've forgotten the administrator password so i turn it off and on while booting a few times and it opens the repairing menu. But there it only shows me administrator accounts and asks me to login to those accounts to reset the PC. I've tried every password i remember but none seem to work. I cant even access the command promt in safe mode because i need the administrator password. Anything else i can do to reset the PC?

    :)

      • If you're using a local account, use your password hint as a reminder.

    Windows 8 PC reset

    I have used this software from Passcape called Reset Windows Password, to reset a Windows 8.1 administrator password on, that was even linked to a online account and it worked fine.
