    How do I access Command Prompt when there is no administrator account?


    My Windows 10 booted up to a black screen after login at that time I was able to access Task Manager. I was able to run System Tepair only to get error message: BAD SYSTEM CONFIG INFO. Now nothing works!Anytime I try to access any advanced options Recovery environment, like Command Prompt, Startup Repair, System Restore, etc it is asking for an admin password. This is my computer, I am the business owner and the only computer for the business. THERE IS NO ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. I am absolutely boggled. How do I get my system up & running without an admin password?

    :)

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    Would I just follow the same steps within safe mode after hooking up to the other system?

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    Command prompt is only accessible from the Administrative Profile, this is to prevent general users from accessing and bypassing controls.
    One method is to remove the drive and connect it to another system.

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    I am repairing a laptop for a friend and I need to access windows in safe mode and the owner has forgotten the password to the main user. I tried logging on with the administrator profile in safe mode but it is not showing up so I was going to use command prompt in safe mode with command prompt but command prompt will not open when I boot that option. Does anyone have any hints for me to figure this out?
