Can’t remember log in password.

[emgold516]

My computer is set up with a user account, and I forgot my windows login password. I have always use my pin, and when I went to login today I got a message that my password has expired and I need to create a new one and then I would be able to continue to use a pin.

I do not remember my password.

I found one website that had me use the windows installation disk to get a command prompt as a workaround, but my hard drive is system reserved, and when I type the commands to copy files from the windows directory, nothing happens.

Please help!!

Thank you!
