I haven't logged into my laptop in ages, so naturally I forgot my password. My laptop is an Hp stream. I tried to reset my password, but the phone number I have hooked up to the account is a house phone, and there is no call option, only text. This doesn't work because it's a house phone and you can't receive texts. I still tried it though, but it didn't work. Then I tried to do account recovery, twice, and was rejected both time. I have a ton of emails and devices and can't keep my information straight on what's hooked up to what, so it's understandable if I mixed my information up. I have tried multiple different password attempts and even tried to make a password reset drive, but that didn't work either. I tried to full on wipe everything off and factory reset it but it says I don't have enough disc space, but I can't log in to my laptop to clear room off of my disc! What can I do?!
