Current Events > Curious PC/Windows question

(+) Yeah! (+)

My computer is telling me to update, which I should do. But I'm a terrible PC owner in that I never tune my PC off. . .I know, that's stupid

But what makes it even worse is that It's been so long that I kind of don't remember my log-in password. I might get it, but what if I don't? What would be the next step in case I fuck up and can't remember it?

Maybe I can change the password right now. . .So it's something that I know I can remember? How do I change that password?

I'm sure a lot of you know this, but I not very PC smart, if I'm being honest. =/

Uh, what version of Windows are you running?

If you can't remember your password, you may have to do a fresh install.

Windows 10

And it's not that I don't remember my password, it's just that I might not and want to know what to do if I can't. A fresh Install, huh? What does that mean?

And I really can't change my password right now? At least that way if I can't change it, that means I don't know the password, right?

Yeah, you can change it right now. I guess I didn't read properly. You can check that out right now.

Open Settings and go into Account.

Thank you, that's all I needed to know. I remember it correctly

Someone take this man's pc away.

You could also reboot into the default admin account and mess around with user settings from there, I think.
