Windows 10: Reset Windows 10 Password Failed

Hi,Downloaded Windows 10 and set password. Logged out. Logged in again and would not accept password. Clicked "Reset Password". Answered one or two secret questions successfully BUT was not allowed to reset the password. It replied with my User Name and asked me to log in, but as I had no new = reset password I could only try one of many old ones. Not successful and machine is now inaccessible.Adding the USB Media Creation Tool and before pressing ESC or the suggested F9 or F10 does not allow me to boot from the USB to start all over again with the Win10 download. HELP!

Windows 10 fails to update


When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89
