"What to do if you forget your Windows 8/8.1 password"

Change or reset your Windows password

If you've forgotten your Windows password, there are several ways to retrieve or reset it:

• If your PC is on a domain, your system administrator must reset your password.
  
• If you're using a Microsoft account, you can reset your password online. For more info, go to the
  
  Reset your password webpage.
  
• If you're using a local account, use your password hint as a reminder.
  

If you've tried these suggestions and still can't sign in:

• If you have Windows 8.1, you'll need to reinstall Windows.
  
  
• If you have Windows RT 8.1, you'll need to contact your PC manufacturer.

Having periodic PC startup problems

Because about half the time when I try to start my PC with Windows 10 it just sits there after I enter my password and click on Enter it shows a ring of dots whirling endlessly and will not progress beyond that point even though I click Enter, Esc, F12 or anything else. I must then go through the annoying time-consuming ritual below to get it to work normally. Also, the PC won’t turn off when I hit the PC power button while it is in this uncooperative condition.
ANNOYING RITUAL STEPS:

• Turn off power strip pc is plugged into & wait 30 secs
• Turn power strip on again
• Turn off PC with its power button when it lights up then wait 30 secs
• Turn on PC power AGAIN with its power button
• Hope the PC starts normally as it should after entering password
• Repeat annoying process if necessary although this usually works the first time

Can anyone help me cure this annoying, time - wasting problem? Thank you very much.*Sad
