accidently dropped sign on PIN #, lost password, MS Windows 10 locked computer. Used several options trying to reset password. even waited 3 months before trying reset password. purchased recovery disk, will not boot. I've tried so many ways to try and change the password that I'm sure what to use. I have a recovery code but do not know where to enter it?
