Whenever I go into windows recovery to use CMD, I select my account and upon entering my password it just says incorrect password. I cant find any way to reset this password or to see what password it wants me to use. I have attached an image showcasing my problem. IMG20240117173700

    Hi First make sure the password is typed ok by displaying it, as the keyboard layout might change some letters. If all as been tried you would need a media to reset the local admin password. There is some good out there, like hiren boot cd, lazesoft, stelar, etc.. in example. You can try the tip displayed here too which dont need any other tools; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYFVVur-5cc
