    So like it says. It was the only active account and I locked it thinking it was something else due to the GPS location not being directly on me. Anyways it's the only account I have. I've logged into command prompt and activated the default admin account but I have nonoption to switch login on the login screen. I'm using windows 10 home. It just asks for my pin and says an administrator has restricted access. I can login to my account online and into my command prompt or safe mode but can't figure out how to get past this pin screen.

    :)
