Please add a pinned comment and an above the fold update to the description telling people how to disable the administrator account after doing this, as it's a massive security issue just leaving it like that.

Make sure you disable administer account after you finished using it. Type: net user administrator /active: no at the command prompt to disable the account.

You are a lifesaver bro .......fully understood your every word and even had a chuckle at the ending regarding actually knowing your pin😊

Thanks so much . Your video really helped me after so much struggle😊

For me when a similar issue happened after resizing the partition where i couldn't log in on my 2011 iMac, i couldn't use any methods from the startup troubleshooter repair options. Every option i tried from resetting PC, system restore, repair startup, all asked for a password. Which it wouldn’t accept. I managed to fix it by booting up my new Linux partition install that originally triggered the partition resize, finding the System32 folder (usually located in the Windows folder in the C drive of your Windows install) in the broken Windows Bootcamp partition, and renaming a couple of files to a different name. I believe the two files were called Utilman and CMD. Initially i got this idea to swap those file names to make it so the accessibility options at the login screen would instead open up the terminal from some advice on an internet search to get around the password requirement, so i could access the terminal and enter the command to hopefully fix it. But instead after restarting from tampering with those files under Linux, it actually triggered Windows 10 to repair itself after a restart, and after that i could log in again. So didn't have to go in to the terminal in the end. So Linux saves a Windows user again lol. But yeah, i can only assume the partition resize from the Linux install must have corrupted something. If similar issues happens to anyone else, booting in to any live Linux distro (i used Fedora) should let you access the Windows/System32 folder if anyone wishes to try the same. Just renaming these files in System32 to anything else will also probably do the trick and trigger a repair. The worst that could happen is you’ll just have to backup your important files that are on Windows with the live Linux distro and do a Windows reinstall if you still want to use Windows if any of these methods fails to work at all.

Have Not run in to this program. But Good to know how to resolve the problem. Thanks Brian! 👍

Tysm you saved my PC

After entering msoftware it shows” The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process”- Did any one face this issue

I will watch this video later, but I have another video wish for you: Could you please make a video about how to check if a website is OK, using a couple of trusted site reviewers.

🙂 to avoid this from every happening go to your Sign In Options and turn everything off, that way if ur motherboard gets messed up and the security stuff on the motherboard has to reset and be erased you wont have to worry about Windows complaining that the security stuff on the motherboard does not match the security stuff in Windows. If your wondering its because every time you boot the computer the motherboard has to do a 'handshake' with Windows 11, its suppose to protect u from malware and viruses that mite be lurking somewhere on the motherboard. Alegedly 😄

🙂 do a video on "There is an issue with Trusted Platform Module" and "Your PIN is No Longer Available on Windows 10 11", bios updates are wrecking havoc on laptops and a few desktops, and then when u reset the TPM u can no longer Sign IN and then your SOL 🔥😄🔥

I think you have to select the name of the loaded hive (on the left) and then it can be unloaded.

Can you finish one before saying another way? It's confusing.

Just set things up to bypass the damn login which is absolutely ridiculous, why they make it so difficult to do that.
