    Forgot Password, Windows 10 Locked Out. How to reset the password?

    My husband purchased a new computer and it had him set up a password to use the device. He forgot what he used as a password on his new computer and can't use it, he's locked out. I have used the account.live.com. as suggested from his screen to fix the
    problem. So I used my computer (again because we can't use his) Everything I see for help, just continues to have me reset the password from his Microsoft account but isn't helping to get into his computer. Any of the suggestions I've read doesn't change
    the fact he's locked out of his computer.

    What do we do?

    Thank-you.
