How to recover a forgotten Windows password

0 views

If you use a Microsoft account, go to account.live.com/password/reset from another device. Enter your email and verify your identity using a code sent to your phone or email. Create a new password and use it to sign in to your PC. If you use a local account, you need a password reset disk created earlier, or you may need to use another admin account on the same PC. Without either, you may need to reset your PC, which could result in data loss.
