    Syskey

    Hello, thanks for sparing time for my issue .

    I had syskey in my windows 10 operating system and I tried to update but in the final stage it did not go through because of the Syskey.

    so I tried to disable syskey but guess I did something wrong and it asked me to change my syskey which I don't remember now... and now I can not use my laptop at all.. all I can do is try to put Syskey password and after three attention or takes me to repair
    PC and all the steps and o tried to reset my laptop and it completes the process but know the end on a black screen all I get is few dots going in a roundward motion .

    please help

    syskey

    An update on my Windows10 laptop is failing because syskey is enabled. With syskey enabled I have to enter a password during the boot process every time I start/restart my machine. Apparently support for syskey in Windows10 is being dropped with these
    latest updates, and so does this mean that I'm stuck with Windows10 as it is on my machine for ever more? I have been told there is no way of disabling syskey once its running, is that true? If so, should I disable updates?
