Windows 10: Internet Password Recovery

Hi!


I just purchased a new password and my new computer is not accepting the password that I am putting into it. I "thought" I had the correct one, but the only way to check for certain is to see what this computer accepted and is using - but I don't know how to access it. I found and was also referred to a nice article that told me to go to Settings, Network, Status, Network & Sharing Center. Next to Connections, I'm to select my network name and then in Wi-Fi Status, select properties. No problem so far!


Under properties, I'm supposed to select the security tab and check "show characters." PROBLEM: I cannot see any security tab! I looked everywhere, backtracked, checked to be sure I was getting instructions for Windows 10. Yep. No security tab. So I'm clueless. Can anyone help?


Thank you so very much!!!

hdd password recovery

howdy. if this isnt the right forum please move it.
a friend has a 3 year old hp or compaq tower. they called me to help. they are not able to get into the admin accound, because the password was changed. it was changed by them when a popup told them for security they should change thier password.
after it was changed they could no longer get into the admin account with the password they changed it to, and the computer started sending out emails to everyone on her address list with porn and viagara type adds.
i ran anti virus and we found 20 trogans, virus, ect. everything comes back clean now, but we still cant get into asdmin account to format drive.she doesnt have a vista system disc, just the recovery partition.
1.. is there a way to get the password?

2... if not can i install a new hdd and install from her recovery partition?

3...will i be able to install new hdd and install vist from my disc or is the mb set up to not alow that?

thanks for any help, they are on a limited budget and are true friends to me and i would like to help them. thanks! sam
