Windows 10: Forgot Windows Password

I am logged on as Administrator, but certain actions require my "password". I have NO IDEA that I even HAD a password or what it could be. I found something: in Run type " keymgr.dll" I tried that and found that "keymgr.dll" was missing. If that is true, how can I get it and install it?


WHY shouldn't I be able to find list of MY OWN passwords?

Thanks for any help

:)

Forgot password....

Um, are we talking about a windows password?

Lookup a program called Active Password Changer, its a bootable cd that will remove windows passwords *Smile

If it's a bios password, reset the bios *not so easy with some notebooks*
