    Locked out Windows 10


    Its the usual "forgot my pin and password wtf do i now". I didn't realise everything requires a password now. I tried running cmd from system repair, it requires a password. Also tried resetting the Pc, nope. That requires a password too. Currently playing a harmonica in the corner of my room while also having a breakdown thinking about all the files that im gonna loose.

    Any help? Thanks

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
