Hi @bigjoshtimber 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

I am afraid there is no option to bypass the password.

If you have forgotten the password and login information for your HP laptop, you can try the following steps to regain access:

Use Password Reset Disk:

• If you created a password reset disk previously, you can use it to reset your password by following the on-screen instructions during login.

Reset Windows Password:

• On the login screen, select "Reset Password" or "Forgot Password" (this option appears if you are using a Microsoft account).
• Follow the instructions to reset your password using your email, phone verification, or security questions.

Use Windows Recovery Options:

• Restart your laptop and press the F8 key (or Shift + F8) to access advanced boot options.
• Choose "Safe Mode" and log in as Administrator if possible (some accounts may not have password restrictions in Safe Mode).
• Go to Control Panel > User Accounts to change your password.

Use a Local Account Option:

• If you're using a local account and have no password reset disk, you might need to use third-party software to reset your password, or reinstall Windows as a last resort (ensure you back up data if possible before reinstalling).

Contact HP Support:

• If you cannot reset the password using any of the methods above, contacting HP Support could provide further assistance or guidance depending on your specific situation.

If all else fails and you have important data on the laptop, consider taking it to a professional technician to recover data and reset the password.
