How to Find or Reset a Windows Local Account Password
If the computer uses a local Windows account, there are three legitimate recovery paths:
Method 1: Use a Password Reset Disk (if previously created)
Insert the disk or USB.
Select “Reset Password” on the login screen.
Create a new password.
✔ No data loss
✖ Few users prepared one in advance
Method 2: Reset Password via Command Prompt in Safe Mode
Boot to WinRE → Troubleshoot → Prompt dei comandi.
Replace the Ease of Access button with CMD via system commands.
Entrare
net user [username] [newpassword]command. Replace [username] with the name of the user account and [newpassword] with the new password you want to set.
✔ Works offline
✖ Risky — wrong commands may break login services
Method 3: Recover a Windows Password for a Microsoft Account
If your Windows login is tied to a Microsoft account rather than a local offline account, no offline tool or command can reveal the password — because the authentication happens online through Microsoft’s servers.
In this case, the correct approach is to reset the Microsoft account password through the official recovery system:
On any device, go to the Microsoft resetting password page.
Enter your Microsoft account email.
Selezionare “Forgotten your password?”
Verify your identity via phone, alternate email, or security code.
Set a new password and reboot the locked computer.
✔ Safe and legitimate
✔ No risk to your files or programs
✖ Requires access to the linked phone/email for verification
If verification codes are unavailable or the Microsoft account recovery fails, then the login cannot be restored by password reset methods. In such cases, users may still need to perform a full system reset to regain access, which is why backing up activation keys beforehand becomes extremely important.
Magic Recovery Key — Protection Before Resetting Your Locked Windows PC
When users realize they must reset the computer, the biggest fear is:
“If I reinstall Windows, will I lose paid software licenses and activation keys?”
Yes — without a backup, reinstalling Windows often forces users to repurchase expensive software because the license codes stored inside the system and registry will be lost.
Magic Recovery Key protects your software investments when a full system reset becomes the only remaining solution. Instead of risking the loss of expensive licenses after reinstalling Windows, Magic Recovery Key enables users to extract and back up product keys and activation information directly from the system drive before the reset takes place.
The Practical Workflow is Simple:
Remove the internal hard drive from the locked PC (or connect it through an external enclosure/adapter).
Attach the drive to another working computer.
Install and run Magic Recovery Key on the working system.
Scan the attached drive and export all detectable software license data.
Magic Recovery Key can recover:
Chiave di prodotto di Windows
Microsoft Office, Adobe, AutoCAD, and other 10,000 popular program licenses
Registry-stored serial numbers and installation identifiers
This means that even if Windows must be reset to regain access, you won’t face a second disaster afterward — having to repurchase software because the activation keys were wiped. Magic Recovery Key provides a safety layer for real-world emergencies, allowing users to rebuild their system confidently, knowing their licenses and activation assets are backed up.
Conclusione
Finding or resetting a Windows password is possible — but the real priority is protecting your data and paid software ecosystem.
If the login is a local account, try the offline password reset routes.
If the login is Microsoft or the system is corrupted, a reset may be unavoidable — but you can reset safely by backing up activation keys first.
If you want a professional, beginner-friendly way to secure software licenses and essential data before resetting Windows, Magic Recovery Key provides the safety net that prevents the worst-case scenario.
Locked out doesn’t have to mean losing everything — as long as you protect your paid license keys before resetting.
