    Reset Windows 10 password


    The PC was given to me by my father. Recently, the password has stopped working. I'm not sure why. The password just stopped working. Any attempt to log in has failed. There is only one account, the administrator account. Is there a way to reset the password or go back to the computer? Or is there a way to reinstall Windows or restart the PC? The PC is a Windows 10.

    :)

      • If your PC is on a domain, your system administrator must reset your password.

      • If you're using a local account, use your password hint as a reminder.

    reset laptop password

    BTW, there's no jumper for a password reset in Windows.
