  2. Local Administrator account will not login

    For Step 1, there was no option for requiring (or not requiring) a password.

    I adjusted the account name, gave a new password, applied the change, then tried the login. That failed.

    For Step 2, I created a new account, and made it an Administrator, but the login again failed.

    For Step 3, the account was created, but the login failed again

    .... frustrated, I re-enabled the built in Administrator account and was able to log in

    I'd still like to know why these other accounts failed to login, though.

  3. Administrator Password not Working-all fixes required administrator password :-(

    HELP! The password for my administrator account is no longer working- or I've forgotten it. I do not have a password reset disk. After days of trying my "normal" passwords and variations, I'm ready to give up and just re-install Windows
    10. BUT WAIT: I can't, because to create the media creation disk from the Microsoft website (long ago trashed the one I used the first time) I have to have the Administrator password to run the download. After selecting
    the command prompt option, I was shown a list of available accounts (me Administrator) and asked to login. Since I apparently don't remember the password, I cannot get past that screen. In answer to your question, my admin account is Not a
    Microsoft account.

    I still have the local account, it Is a Microsoft account and is working fine. But that doesn't seem to offer any paths to fix this.

    There is an active Administrator account on my computer (labeled me administrator) but again, the password I believe to be correct does not work.

    I have posted this previously but the suggestion I received (basically, use shift reset to get to a command prompt and then….. the rest doesn’t matter because I can’t get to
    the command prompt without being asked for an administrator password.
    I replied to the suggested fix, but after 24 hours or hearing nothing, my stress level is getting even more elevation.

    In summary- I can’t access the administrator account- and all proposed fixes (to this point) require access to the administrator account.
    See my dilemma????
