I tried to open in safe mode and the password window still came up what can I do?

Hi mosttoys66! Welcome to bytes.com!

It's great to have you here!

When you post, please always keep to the Posting Guidelines and if you should post code, please post it in [code] ... [/code] tags.

About your question:
I'm sorry, but according to our Posting Guidelines, we may not help you with this issue, as it would violate the following paragraph:

Now, you probably do only want to use it on your own laptop, but sadly this knowledge could be used illegally. Therefore I'm closing this thread.

I will however give you one tip: Search on Google. There are ways to reset the password, you just have to find them.

Otherwise, I'll just wish you the best and hope you enjoy being part of bytes.com!
