    How do I reset my Windows 10 login password?


    Under sign-in options I'm trying to add either a a Windows 10 password OR Windows Hello Pin to sign into my PC. The issue I'm having is that I don't remember what my password is to be able to use either of these options. I figured it might be my Microsoft account password but it is not.

    :)
