  3. I messed my computer up and I'm now locked out. (Windows 10)

    You will have to download, create a bootable copy then perform a custom install if you want to recover your files:

    Go to a working computer, download, create a bootable copy, then perform a clean install.

    If there are files on the drive you want to recover, see - How to: Perform a Custom install of Windows 10

    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/wiki...

    Before you do that though, do the following:

    At the sign in screen:

    Hold down the shift key on your keyboard while clicking the Power button on the screen.

    Continue to hold down the shift key while clicking Restart.

    Continue to hold down the shift key until the Advanced Recovery Options menu appears.

    Click Troubleshoot

    Click Advanced options

    Click Command Prompt

    At the command prompt, type:

    net user administrator /active:yes

    Hit Enter

    Close command prompt, restart, then try signing into the Administrator account.
