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...

First devices came with single core processor but later on scientists invented more advanced processors such as dual core , So...

Group Anagrams – Python Solution Explained

Problem Overview The Group Anagrams problem is a common challenge in coding interviews and competitive programming. The goal is to group a list of strings such that all anagrams are placed in the same group. Anagrams are words that contain the same characters but in different orders. For example, given the input ["eat", "tea", "tan", "ate", "nat", "bat"] , the expected output is [['eat', 'tea', 'ate'], ['tan', 'nat'], ['bat']] . Approach and Solution In this blog post, we'll discuss an efficient solution using Python's built-in data structures. The provided code uses a dictionary to group the anagrams. Here’s a step-by-step explanation of the approach: Code Breakdown Explanation Initialization: We use defaultdict from the collections module to create a dictionary ( hm ) where each key will map to a list of anagrams. This is useful because it automatically initializes ...
