  1. Recover user Password for Windows 10 while still being logged in


    Hello,

    I for some weird reasons lost the Windows 10 user password on my computer. I am however still logged in to the computer and can launch applications with admins right.
    I am a bit scared to use most recovery tools which needs you to close your computer in order to get the password because in case it doesn't work I'm fucked.

    Also note I am still logged in to Teams and Outlook version of Office365 in case that can help

    Is there any tools like a powershell application I can use to get back my password without logging off ?

    Thanks guys !

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”

    We have different ways on how to get your account back. First, let's check if the Caps Lock
