  2. forgotten user password

    Do you use a Microsoft Account to login to your computer? If so, you can reset it online. If not, your options locally are limited to doing things like a factory reset (so your computer is "good as new" and you can pick a new password that you want to
    use).

    Here's a listing of all your options to reset a forgotten Windows Password.

    Unable to sign-in to Microsoft account forgotten password

    Hi,



    Thank you for coming back to us with details.



    Since, you have forgotten the user account password we will not able to help you related password scenarios due to security purpose. The best what I can suggest you is create a new user account and transfer all user profile data’s to the new user account.
    Once you transfer all the data’s to new user account you can convert the user account to Microsoft account and delete the old user account (If you want).
    You can also follow the below steps to transfer all your data’s to the new user account.


    • Open file explorer and double click on
      OS (Ci've forgotten my user password :).

    • Go to Users and try transferring all the data’s/file to the new user account.
    Hope this helps. We look forward to hear from you.
