    Forgotten Windows 10 password on a version before 1803


    Hello!

    At my workplace we took a computer out of storage but no one knows the admin password. Because the version is something before 1803, there's no pin and no security questions. All we have is a hint, which hasn't helped at all because none of the other passwords have let us in. I tried to reset the computer press shift, then restart, click troubleshoot, and reset it, try to erase everything but it won't allow me to because I'm not signed in as admin and obviously can't.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    :)
