Can't access to your Dell Windows 10 laptop as you forgot password? Forgetting laptop password isn't fun. It causes you not able to log on to the laptop, delaying your work and even losing all your personal files. So you need to reset password to regain access to your laptop.

A password reset disk makes it easy to reset the password on your Dell laptop. But if you don't have a reset disk, how do you reset Dell laptop password without disk? That's the problem we will solve on this page.

Part 2: Forgot Dell laptop password without password reset disk

If you didn't create a disk in advance, it's not your default.

Never mind. Here are two password reset methods for you, if you forgot Dell Windows 10 laptop password without password reset disk.


  • Method 1: by security questions
  • Method 2: using Windows Password Refixer

Method 1: Reset Dell Windows 10 laptop password by security questions

If you are wondering how to reset Dell Windows 10 laptop password without using any disk, there is only one way: by answering security questions, but only if you are using Windows 10 v1803 or higher on your Dell laptop and have already set up security questions for your user account.

When you enter an incorrect password to sign in, you will get a message on the Windows 10 login screen: "The password is incorrect. Try again." Click OK under that message so that a link labeled "Reset password" will appear under the Password box. Click that "Reset password" link so that your security questions will display on the screen. Enter your correct answers to the security questions so that you will be allowed to reset your password and then directly log on to your Dell Windows 10 laptop with the new password.

Method 2: Reset Dell Windows 10 laptop password with Windows Password Refixer

If you forgot Dell laptop password without any password reset disk or security questions created, and have no other accounts available, then you have to use a third-party Windows Password recovery tool like Windows Password Refixer to reset your password. Here are the steps.

Step 1: Create a Windows Password Refixer disk

As you now can't access to your Dell Windows 10 laptop, you have to use another device (Windows PC or Mac) to download and install the Windows Password Refixer tool. Once you have it installed, you launch it and then follow its on-screen instruction to burn it into a USB device or CD/DVD flash drive to create a password reset disk.

Once the first vendor logo appears, immediately press and hold the Setup key (F2) or Boot options key (F12) to enter the BIOS Setup interface or the Boot menu and then set that disk (USB device or CD/DVD flash drive) as the first boot device so that your Dell laptop will boot from that disk.

Langkah 3: Tetapkan semula kata laluan untuk komputer riba Dell Windows 10

Ia memaparkan Windows 10 OS yang berjalan pada komputer riba Dell anda dan menyenaraikan semua akaun pengguna yang sedia ada pada komputer riba anda. Hanya pilih Windows 10 anda serta pengguna yang terlupa kata laluan itu, kemudian klik butang Tetapkan Semula Kata Laluan untuk menetapkan semula kata laluan.
