So want to reset my windows laptop with the option of clearing everything. I am on an account that is managed by a administrator account, like when I try to uninstall things I have to put the administrator password.

Unable to sign in after resetting PC, only Other User present

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you have reset the PC and there is no other user account apart from other user.



I would suggest you to boot the PC in to safe mode and check if you are able to login. Refer the section
From the sign-in screen in the article
Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10.



If you are able to login to the PC in safe mode, try enabling the default administrator and then login to the PC. Follow the steps mentioned below to enable default administrator.

1. Open Start Menu and type
   CMD.
   
2. Now right click on it and click on
   Run as administrator.
   
3. Type the following command to enable hidden administrator:
   net user administrator /active:yes
   
4. Restart the PC and then try logging in to the
   Administrator account.
   

If you are able to login to the Administrator account, create a new user account and try to login. Refer the article

Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10.
