  1. Windows startup failure, how do I access command prompt if the pc refuses to accept my password


    Windows startup failure. I can’t access command prompt, or anything else because the pc says my Microsoft password is incorrect. I can’t sign in and I can’t access files or anything, no command prompt nothing. It says I have incorrect password everytime I put it in. Yes I reset the password and even reset to type it in multiple times and it still refuses to accept my password

    :)

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    I am repairing a laptop for a friend and I need to access windows in safe mode and the owner has forgotten the password to the main user. I tried logging on with the administrator profile in safe mode but it is not showing up so I was going to use command prompt in safe mode with command prompt but command prompt will not open when I boot that option. Does anyone have any hints for me to figure this out?

    Would I just follow the same steps within safe mode after hooking up to the other system?

    Windows Startup password

    Is it possible to remove a startup password without being able to log into the system? A friend's laptop just prompt her today for a password that she never enabled. Now, she does have a standard user account password, but that doesn't work for the startup password. She had the computer for about a year now and it has never asked for a startup password until today.

    I tried to use Hiren Boot CD to run a diagnostic on the laptop, but it has a bsod. Windows 10 normal boot crashes as well
