My toddler somehow changed the start up password for my All in One PC. I don’t know the answers to the security questions as this PC belonged to my mom before she passed away. I don’t have the disk either. 
is there anyway to get into this computer and reset the password?

thanks so much!

Therefore, we are unable to assist you with this.

 

Your best be it to take the PC to a local PC repair facility as they might have the means to get it booted for you.

 

Good Luck
