  1. Forgotten Administrator password!


    I have forgotten my Administrator password on my Microsoft 10 computer. I've tried all my previous passwords, but they are not right. I remember part of the new password that I changed, but since I don't know the rest, am not able to get in.On reading some suggestions on Youtube and other sites, I tried pressing F8 while booting the computer - said it would take me to a Login with Safe Mode, but it did not show me this option.I really need help getting into this computer!Thanks!* Moved from Community Center

    If you've forgotten your Windows password, there are several ways to retrieve or reset it:

    • If your PC is on a domain, your system administrator must reset your password.
    • If you're using a Microsoft account, you can reset your password online. For more info, go to the

      Reset your password
      webpage.
    • If you're using a local account, use your password hint as a reminder.
    If you've tried these suggestions and still can't sign in:

    • If you have Windows 8.1, you'll need to reinstall Windows.
    • If you have Windows RT 8.1, you'll need to contact your PC manufacturer.
