Google for 'sticky keys windows 10'
You can use a WinPE, Win Install or linux boot CD or USB.

Trinity Rescue Kit should work. I seriously doubt that the way passwords are stored in 10 (in the SAM file buried somewhere in C:\Windows) have changed that much from previous Windows OSes. Windows password security is a joke.

Make a windows reset disk, then you can reset admin password of the computer. It's quite easy to do that

You can make a bootable reset disk either with USB or DVD. It depends on you. However, USB is preferred because of its portability. Here is the tutorial on how to create a reset disk and reset admin password: http://www.iseepassw...0-password.html

Does it need a USB drive? OK, I'm going to to buy one! Thanks!

iseepassword is not free.The sticky keys trick works flawlessly with almost all versions of Windows. There are also many free password tools such as Offline NT Password & Registry Editor, PEPassPass, Ophcrack, etc.

Lets not confuse software performing bruteforce versus software performing offline reseting password.
The op was asking for a software reseting the password.

And let's not confuse those with software that allow bypassing the password ... (PassPass and similar/derivative PEPassPass do not bruteforce nor reset password, though once you have bypassed it you can reset it of course)

Good point.
PassPass is on this forum and easy to find.
I am struggling a bit more to find informations about PEPassPass : any link/details?
In that same category (bypassing password), would it worth mentionning KonBoot?
edit : Looks like KonBoot is not for free so I would be tempted to forget about it...

Sure, it originated a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, you know like here :
http://reboot.pro/to...045-pepasspass/
http://reboot.pro/to...198-pepasspass/
And before you think of creating it , also a PassPassLive exists, JFYI (only a POC with very little practical uses):
http://reboot.pro/to...9-passpasslive/
Of course, given that - at least for 64 bit - the patching is "specific" to each particular version and that the good MS guys release a queerly titled Windows version/update very often, since noone maintains (let alone properly) a list of patches (that could in theory well be independent from the "patching engine used BTW), it is very likely that none will be of actual use for a windows 10 system, particularly a "current" one .

you can reset any Windows password that without any 3rd-party password uitlity, just need a Windows ISO(or PE).
boot with Windows ISO, press SHIFT+F10 to open a prompt(cmd window).
backup osk.exe->osk.exe.org and copy cmd.exe->osk.exe
X:>cd /d C:\Windows\System32 C:\Windows\System32>ren osk.exe osk.exe.org C:\Windows\System32>copy cmd.exe osk.exe
now, colse the setup.exe windows for rebooting and remove the DVD(or USB).
in the host windows login UI, click "screen keyboard", now you startup a CMD with SYSTEM privilege,
just input `net user Adminstrator your_new_p@ssword` for reseting it.
Edited:
Oh, after logining with new password, rename the osk.exe.org back to osk.exe.

Indeed, similar to the utilman.exe trick.
We have so far listed 3 different approaches with pros and cons:
-reset it : will not modify your system files, will not leave the password untouched, is rather quick
-bypass it : will temporarily modify your system files, will leave the password untouched, is rather quick
-bruteforce it : will not modify your system files, will leave the password untouched, needs lot of time
So far, for non hacking purposes, i.e reset a forgotten password, my preference goes to "reset it" : boot to winpe, reset password, reboot and log in your windows. 1 minute task (provided you have a winpe ready) ...

No need to format, buying a new computer is easier.

it is possible but it takes time to reinstall the drivers as well as the existing programs. not recommended though

You have to make bootable Windows 10 USB first before applying the striky key methods. Please keep it in mind.
