    Hi folks! Would appreciate your help.

    Please move if this post is not in the right forum. *Redface

    Have a friend (senior citizen) who bought a 2 in 1 tablet/laptop online. It turns out that he cannot login, because the machine has someone else's password!


    If he does a full reset, back to factory default, will he be able to use his Microsoft account password instead of whatever is on the computer, or, does he need to get a W10 ISO, and reinstall W10 from scratch?


    Thanks for your help!
