    If you've forgotten your Windows admin password and cannot reset it through USB or advanced options, you might consider using the Microsoft Entra self-service password reset feature if it has been enabled for your organization. This allows users to reset their passwords directly from the Windows sign-in screen without needing another device. However, if this option is not available, you may need to reset your PC or use a password reset tool that can help recover or reset the password.

    For further assistance, you can also refer to the Microsoft support documentation for changing or resetting your Windows password.
