mple:HP Pavilion -17-ar050wm
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My laptop is an HP pavilion 17 ar050wm Windows 10 home 64-bit.

For some reason when I started my computer this time it wants my password and I have never used a password on this computer, every time I try to enter one it tells me it's wrong and to try again I did not make a backup password flash drive is there a way I can get into my computer without a password because I don't know what the hell it is and I have a lot of things on my computer, my father's funeral, a lot of photographs a lot of things that are dear to me otherwise I'd just take it back to factory reset but I really don't want to lose those things.
