Hi Massier,
I'm not sure if I can understand your issue (you didn't describe what kind of account, i.e. local account, Microsoft account, domain account, etc.).
Please refer to this article.

Hi,i have 2 accounts on my computer (A local account and a guest account),but i forgot the login password of local account,so i am going to login computer with the guest account and reset or set up a new password for local account.Thursday, March 14, 2019 6:49 AM -
Hi,
Thank you for your explanation. As for your description, you have 2 accounts, both of them are local accounts. And a guest account does not have an administrator privilege and it can change or remove the other's account/password. Sorry, I have no idea to solve your issue.
If you remember <g class="gr_ gr_532 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar only-ins replaceWithoutSep" data-gr-id="532" id="532">password</g> of local account (as you said), try to sign tomorrow, account lock would be reset one day after.

Hi Massier,
I did it,just did what you said above.I didn't use other account to log into computer,because it was faster to use bootable disks.
