    Good afternoon gorsancz !

    By the rules of the forum it is not allowed to share any type of access, modification or procedures to break any type of passwords.

    In this case I suggest contacting the official Acer channels:

    Acer Worldwide : http://www.acer.com/worldwide/support/
    Acer USA : https//www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/service-contact
    Chat : https://us.answers.acer.com/app/chat/chat_launch
    Acer repair service : USA https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/service-contact

    You can change the set password only if you know the set password. Otherwise you must arrange for ACER service to change it. Price ~$100usd. Jack E/NJ

    As you know,Windows iso is free and can be downloaded from Microsoft website.and get a free burn or Media Creation tool for making a password reset disk,then reset the password.....But i haven't done it,i don't know if it will work.
    All I did was follow some Windows password reset tutorials on my computer.
