  1. Unable to access Recovery Options - Due to Admin Password not accepted after Win 10 failed...


    When initially logging into Win 10 I had been using my Pin. That process fails and no options to select alternate login are available. I believe the issue to be with the system files that I recently reviewed to eliminate other issues. No I did not create a Set point for recovery. I have seen recently a rash of recovery problems and PIN login issues, however, this problem I am having is a combination of the two.My next step was to use the recovery options. So I powered off - then restarted with Shift Key and was taken to the recovery screen. From here I tried several of the recovery options.

    WIN 10 Admin password not working.


    This really helped and the Hibernate problem was put to rest, however the pswd is not reset. I am following the default option in NT and at some point it is just cycling around, until i choose to quite. I can see the admin has been selected and some attempts are made to clear the register. I says the pswd appears to be blank and suggest to log in with blank pswd. Also when quitting, it asked to write the changes to the disk - y. But when tested later, there still is a password.
    The program looks pretty neat though.

    Some steps from me: on the pc is a guest acc, so no password. This is still something, then i achieve to get to the Recovery and restart. Now I have tried various options like run Safe mode with Command prompt and type the bcdedit command, which is access denied. Option 2 to run just the command prompt also failed, because ask for admin password.

    Guys, is there any way to get rid of the Safe mode from the recovery/ troubleshoot/ advanced options without the admin password?????

    I found this whole story to be really, really big safety issue for this windows. If the only option is to log in to safe mode with the password(no pin) why the hell, they do not ask for it when switching it on?! Poor programming from everywhere! Also some restriction are easy to go around - after couple of days playing around on this issue.
