How to unlock Windows 10 password lock.

As all of us are aware of what computers are and what are they capable to do. In some point of our lives we may have encountered the situation of losing our passwords. And some of us may not be able to regain the password. And in the end you have to format you PC which resulted in loss of your data. To avoid these situation here are some tricks to overcome the situation for Windows 10.

You can apply any method shared in this article. And they will be much beneficial to you. By following any of these tricks you should not be worrying about losing any data.
In my knowledge I have 2 methods

  • 1.       Using Command Prompt.
  • 2.      Resetting Microsoft account password


So let’s discuss all of them one by one.

·         Using command prompt.



Command prompt is proved to be most beneficial tool during these scenarios. But it might be bit dangerous if you don’t have much technical skills. So, in my point of view use this method if you are bit expert. Unless you will end up harming your PC.

STEP 1. Reboot your PC to see the Boot menu.

STEP 2. Choose safe mode and press enter to restart your PC in safe mode.

STEP 3. Click on start and open command prompt.

STEP 4.  Type“net user” to list down all the account running in your PC.

STEP 5. Now type “net user (name of account whose password you want to change) * .”
{in step 5 * is asterisk mark}

STEP 6. Now you will see command “Type a password for the user” and hit enter.

STEP 7. It will ask you to retype the password, do it and hit enter again.         
{the pass word you will write will not display so don’t panic.}

·       METHOD 2: Resetting Microsoft account password.

Other way to get hold on to your PC after losing password is changing you MS account password. This is the another way to log into your computer after losing your password. Apply the following steps to change Microsoft account password.


1.       STEP 1: Go to https://account.live.com/password/resetfrom your smartphone or any other computer.


2.       STEP 2: Complete the instruction and answer all the questions correctly.

3.       STEP 3: Finally, setup a new password for your account and apply the changes.

DISADVANTAGES

1.       Doesn’t work on local administrators.

2.       Changing Microsoft account password will also change the passwords for all other Microsoft services that you are using.

The same method holds for every window whether it is Windows 7 or 8

1235. Maximum Profit in Job Scheduling

Hi everyone, Today's post is little bit intriguing to me as it took me some time to get t the solution. I have been out of practice for a bit so I was not able to do it in the DP. I didn't want to copy the code. Though i understood the code after i checked its solution in the discussions. Anyways, i tried to do it with heap and with some thinking I was able to do it and with my surprise It performed real well. I would like to jump to the solution but first I would like to explain a little bit about heaps so you can get better understanding of the code. A heap is like a special type of list where the smallest (or largest) item is always at the front. Think of it like a priority line at a theme park, where the person with the highest priority goes to the front. There are two types of heaps: Min Heap: The smallest item is at the front. It's like standing in a line where the shortest person is always at the front. Max Heap: The largest item is at the front. It's like stand

1456, Maximum Number of Vowels in a Substring of Given Length

Hi, folks today I am here with an interesting coding problem from Leetcode. *To directly go to the question please click here. So I will walk through the solution. It will be a brute force and an optimized way solution. I will be explaining the optimized way solutions in depth. # Intuition For any substring of length k, we need to find how many vowels are there in it and provide the highest count of all counts of vowels in a substring. Test Case 1 Input k = 2 and s='asjdee' Output - 2 Explanation: As for substring of length k=2, in the string 's' we have 'ee' when the length is k and the vowels count is 2 Test Case 2 Input k=3 and s='aasdiisdwe' Output - 2 Explanation - For all the substrings with length k = 3 we have 'aas' and 'dii' with 2 vowels each in it. Brute Force - Looping (twice) - Gives TLE (Not recommended) # Approach Create a hashmap (dictionary) with all the vowels in it. Loop through the string till len(s)-k element of strin

1287. Element Appearing More Than 25% In Sorted Array

Hi, Today i bring you new Leetcode problem. Its an easy one :) The problem is - Element Appearing More Than 25% In Sorted Array As qs. explains itself we need to find a number that appears 25% times or more than the length of he array. So for example if array has length of 8 then the resultant number should appear 2 or more times. The constraints given are - 1 <= arr.length <= 100, 0 <= arr[i] <= 10 5 So, lets look at the cases which we may encounter. 1. if length is 1. then the number itself is the result. 2. if length is divisibe by 4 3. if length is not divisible by 4. Let's look at the code now...  class Solution : def findSpecialInteger ( self , arr : List[ int ]) -> int : n = len (arr) start = 0 end = n hm = defaultdict() for i in arr: hm[i] = hm.get(i, 0 )+ 1 for i in hm: if hm[i]>n// 4 : return i Now we will go through the code. Step 1: Initializatio
