    Factory reset windows 10


    Hello, I have an old laptop that has windows 10 installed on it. The previous owner did not delete the administrator account, and I do not have the password. Is there any way to factory reset the laptop without the administrator password? Thank you.

    Hello chanroy, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)

    If you like, you could download a Windows 10 ISO for the same edition and architecture that you currently have installed, create a bootable USB with the ISO, then do a clean install.
