How to Bypass Windows 10 Microsoft Account Password After Forgotten?

First of all, you have to use another computer to make a boot CD. Download the CD image of PCUnlocker and save it to any folder on your local hard drive, then use the freeware ISO2Disc to burn the ISO file to a blank CD (or USB flash drive).



Put the CD into the optical drive of your locked Windows 10 PC. To boot from the CD, you might have to enter into the BIOS (UEFI) Setup and set the boot sequence to use CD/DVD-ROM as the first boot media.

After booting successfully from the CD, you'll be taken to the PCUnlocker program. From there you will see a list of all the local accounts available on your computer. Please note that one of your local accounts was automatically associated with your Microsoft account, and you'll find out your email address displayed under the Description column.



Select the associated local account and click on Reset Password button. The program will switch your Microsoft account to local account and afterwards reset the local user password.

Take out the CD and reboot your computer. You can then log back into Windows 10 without entering a password. That's it!
