But they want me to give them too many details which i myself do not know. please do tell me a trick to solve the problem.

Can't think of any tricks and there are no magic bullets.
Some people have reported that multiple reboots have allowed them to successfully enter a password but if you have one and don't know what it is, it's not likely to help you much.
I'd recommend using this article http://pureinfotech.com/2015/11/20/how-reset-windows-10-forgotten-password-regain-access-computer/
It will allow you to enable the otherwise hidden Administrator account from which you should be able to either edit your password if it's a local account, or create a new user as a member of the local administrators group (not a standard user), into which you should be able to recover your old profile items and use the new account as your own.
