Log On/Password Failure

I have only one account on my computer. It is an administrator account.
I am unable to log on as I continue to get a "the user name or password is
incorrect" error. How can I log on and disable the security requiring the
password log on?????

Hi GrandMaB,

If you cannot remember the correct password or just need to reset it, then this tutorial will show you how reset the password so you can have access again. You might double check to make sure you do not have the Caps Lock kek on while entering your username and password.

Reset User Account Password

Hope this helps you,
Shawn
