Forgot admin password

Hi,

Thank you for posing your response.

As you are in a state were your account is completely inaccessible, I suggest that you try to access in build admin account and check if you are able to access the desktop.

To access the in built administrator account follow the steps below

Step 1: Follow the steps to enable Built-in Administrator account:

• As you are stuck min Safe Mode, in the sign-in
  screen, press and hold shift key and click on the
  power icon. Here click on Restart and then Restart now.
• Type: net user administrator /active:yes (To enable Built –in Administrator account give the command Active: No).
• Then press ENTER.

Step 2: From Built-in Administrator account give Administrator rights to your user account:

• Press Windows Key + X key and click Control Panel.
• Click on User account.
• Click on Manage another account.
• Click on your user account.
• Click on reset the password.
• Restart the computer and check if you are able to login.

Note: Once done exist the build in admin account by typing the command
net user administrator /active:no

Hope this helps

 

Forgot Windows 10 password...

For future reference, there have been reports that this was patched out several weeks back. I found an alternative method doing some registry diving.
