Hi @clakka,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

No worries, this happens often, and there are safe ways to regain access without losing your data. Here are your options:

1. If You Use a Microsoft Account

  • On the sign-in screen, click “I forgot my password”.
  • Or go to Microsoft Password Reset on another device.
  • Reset your password and sign in with the new one.


2. If It’s a Local Account

  • On the login screen, click Reset password (if you set up security questions).
  • If that doesn’t work, you can use Windows Recovery

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have an amazing day!
