I have an Acer es 15 ... forgot my password I`m assuming its the windows password. I`m using windows 10 and I have no disc.
any help appreciated.

Since it is a password issue you would have to reset computer. But once you reset everything on the computer will be deleted. To reset hold Shift key and hit restart on the screen. Once you do that, it will take you to advanced options. Select troubleshoot and select RESET. It should RESET your computer.

My Laptop couldn't reset, saying additional free space is needed on the drive where window is installed. Clear some space.
