I'm having trouble logging into my computer (Windows 10 - Lenovo laptop). I was bypassing the password but periodically I have to change it. I have forgotten the pw so I can't get in.

I thought I could go into safe mode to fix it, but having trouble with that. I thought tapping F8 repeatedly on startup would do it, but I can't seem to get it.

(I do have another computer - I'm wondering if I can use that machine to help get into the other.)

Any guidance would greatly be appreciated.

Hi Ernest,

Welcome to the Forum.

If you had a Microsoft Account password set up and have forgotten it, then using your other computer you can get it reset by going to Microsofts's Account Reset Password website. Simply click the I forgot my password and follow the prompts.

https://account.live.com/password/reset

They'll reset it automatically and send you a verification code via email to confirm it's really you.

Regards,
