  1. Password forgotten


    Hi, my pc's model is Toshiba. It is an old computer. I upgraded from Windows 7 32 bits Windows 10 32 bits, but after the computer booted, I could not log in because there were 2 accounts that require passwords. I have this one and a new computer that has Windows 11 64 bits. So I wanted to open the Prompt Command with a lot of methods to replace the "sethc.exe" by "cmd.exe" or to delete the users.First, when I restarted my computer in the login screen by pressing on shift and restart, I could access the troubleshoot windows. However, when I press on one of the troubleshoot options, it restart

  3. Forgotten password

    Hi,

    "What to do if you forget your Windows 8/8.1 password"

    Change or reset your Windows password - Microsoft Support

    If you've forgotten your Windows password, there are several ways to retrieve or reset it:

    • If your PC is on a domain, your system administrator must reset your password.
    • If you're using a Microsoft account, you can reset your password online. For more info, go to the

      Reset your password
      webpage.
    • If you're using a local account, use your password hint as a reminder.
    If you've tried these suggestions and still can't sign in:

    • If you have Windows 8.1, you'll need to reinstall Windows.
    • If you have Windows RT 8.1, you'll need to contact your PC manufacturer.
