    Forgot Microsoft account password


    I cannot log in to my laptop because I have forgotten the password. If I click on ‘I forgot my password’ , the system requires me to enter email address that I used to create Microsoft account but it is no longer in use. I don’t remember it either. So I am in a deadlock

    You need to boot into Safe Mode. Do this by mashing F8 when the computer is starting, right before Windows loads, until you see a bunch of options. Select "Safe Mode". It'll boot into Safe Mode, and bring you to the login screen. At the login screen, go in as "Administrator", and from there go to the control panel. In the control panel, open "users", select the account you forgot the password of, and click "remove password". Restart the computer and all will be well *Smile Forgot Microsoft account password :).
