"Windows 10 Pro"


          

I made a boo-boo

When I start windows 10 Pro

The first screen I see is System administrator with a log in box.
If I click the box I get a prompt that I need to see my system administrator.

I can't restore my drive (c) using Acronis True Image.
I can get into safe mode command prompt.

My question is how do I change the System Administrator so I can boot up?

Thank You

Describe how you got to that point besides a boo boo.Maybe we can figure how to back out of it.

My problem was fixed.
Using my other computer
I did a google search for system administrator password missing.
I downloaded some help instructions.
On my wife's computer I booted up and pressed the F8 key.
I then entered the safe mode cmd.com
In the com.com mode:
I entered the keystrokes in the instruction I downloaded.
This allowed me to reset my System Admisator password.
My problem was fixed.

Thank You for your response.

It would be helpful if you posted what worked in case someone else has the problem.That's what this is all about isn't it?
