    local account password forgotten and password recovery drive lost


    I am using Windows 10 build 19044 and I had set up a local account in late 2020 with a windows hello PIN number and also a password 2 methods. I remember the pin code so can still access the computer. today I tried to change to a Microsoft account only to realize that i don't remember the password and when i try resetting it asks for a password recovery drive which i don't remember making if i did make it it's probably lost forever, none of the 2 drives i have are it so how can i proceed. i might be able to remember if i see the password hint or the security questions.

    :)

    Administrator should not be listed after that net user Administrator /active:no command was run.

    Just reboot to make sure everything has worked through - and just sign in to one account not more than one. Choose either G3YAQ or VE2KM
