Finding your Windows 10 password: If you’ve forgotten your Windows 10 password, use the 'Reset Password' link on the login screen. You'll be prompted to answer security questions or use a recovery email. Alternatively, if you're using a Microsoft account, you can reset your password at the Microsoft account recovery page. For local accounts, you may need to create a password reset disk or use a third-party tool to regain access.
