  1. Accidentally deleted the only Admin WIN10 & somehow the System Admin's PW was changed in...


    Long story, short... I enabled the system admin and assigned it a PW and then I'm not really sure what happened, but I think I was messing around with the permissions for a basic user account and whatever I did deleted the only admin account profile and seemingly changed the PW to the system admin simultaneously which is a problem because now nobody has admin rights nor the ability to use the enabled system admin and everything I know to do in order to restore the local/original admin can't be done because everything requires elevated privileges. I need to restore the original admin's user pro

    Change admin account password

    I am running WIN10 build 18362. I have the admin PW (not my MS account PW) so can login. I wish to change the admin PW. There are no other accounts on the machine. How can I make the change?
