Don’t worry, this video has you covered!
We’ll guide you through several solutions to unlock your account and get back to using your computer in no time:
Wait it out: If you haven’t tried too many wrong passwords, the account might unlock automatically after a set time. We’ll explain how long it typically takes.
Reset your password online: If you have a connected Microsoft account, you can reset your password through a web browser and then log in with the new one.
Use a local administrator account (if available): If another user account on your computer has administrator privileges, you can use that account to unlock the locked one.
Advanced methods (with caution): We’ll briefly touch on advanced methods involving Command Prompt or bootable media, but strongly recommend only trying these if the previous solutions fail and you’re comfortable with technical steps.
Remember: It’s crucial to only use your own account and password to avoid security risks.
