    Hello,I need an urgent help with Windows10. I was working on my virtual machine for a school project and was supposed to run a script to change ssecurity policy.By mistake, I ended up running that script on my actual laptop and thereafter I couldnt log back into my windows account again.I tried to create a dummy account thru command line and I am able to log back in to the computer.However, I am unable to find and edit local security policy and hence unable to relogin with my regular accountPlease help. I have a project to complete and its due in 2 days

    :)
