How can I reset my computer's password if I have forgotten it? But I do not have the recovery disks.

    Good day

     

    You will need to reload the machine to factory settings and all data will be lost. You can reload by following the below steps:

     

    • Plug in the AC adapter and battery.
    • Turn the system on Immediately, press ALT on the keyboard and start tapping F10. Continue holding ALT and tapping F10 as the unit boots up.
    • A screen stating "Starting Acer Erecovery" should appear. (Release ALT and stop tapping F10 at this point)
    • There will be 4 options: 1. Restore system to factory default 2. Restore system from user backup 3. Exit
