    Startup Repair can't fix my PC and I forgot my admin password


    I upgraded the software on my PC, and when I tried to start it, it wouldn't start. I tried the automatic repairs and that didn't work. I got "Startup Repair couldn't repair your PC". Then, I tried to follow youtube tutorials on going into the command prompt to enter some commands, but I can't do that because I forgot my admin password since I built my PC 3 years ago.Now I don't know what to do.

    :)
