    Administrator password forgot,UAC problem

    If you kill the power three times, on the third boot a Windows 10 PC will boot to the recovery environment, showing this screen.

    Where you should click on Command Prompt. The command prompt will open, now you can carry on from step 2 in Option Four of @Brink's Tutorial I linked to earlier. At no point should you be asked for an account or password.

    If this is not what happens for you please describe what you do see, with screenshots if possible.

    Forgot my password

    If you don't already you might consider using a password manager. In addition to online usernames and passwords you could store your Windows user name, password, and PIN there. If you ever forget this information you could log into the password manager on your phone and retrieve it there.

    When Windows is installed the first user is of user type Administrator. Additional users are of user type Standard unless the added user requires otherwise.

    There is also a built-in user named Administrator that has a user type of Administrator. By default this user is hidden but you can un-hide it if you wish using your regular account that has user type of Administrator.

    Code:
    On my desktop I log in using my password. On my laptop I normally log in using my fingerprint. The fallback is my PIN and then my password.

    The accounts on my laptop including the hidden Administrator account.
