If you forgot your Windows 10 password, the easiest way to get back into your account is to reset the password for your Microsoft account. You'll need internet access, but it's the usual way to sign in, and it allows access to services like Outlook and Skype. If you can't sign in that way, you'll need to use a local account. A local account signs you in on your device offline, and doesn't link to your other devices.
Reset local account password for Windows 10, version 1803 and beyond
If you added security questions when you set up your local account for Windows 10, then you have at least version 1803 and you can answer security questions to sign back in.

Reset local account password for Windows 10, before version 1803
For versions of Windows 10 earlier than 1803, local account passwords can't be reset because there are no security questions. You can reset your device to choose a new password, however this option will permanently delete your data, programs, and settings. If you've backed up your files you'll be able to restore your deleted files. For more information, see Recovery options in Windows 10.
To reset your device, which will delete data, programs, and settings:
Press the Shift key while you select the Power button > Restart in the lower-right corner of the screen.
On the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot > Reset this PC.
delete your pass word and you don't do banking
simple really
however what you can do is look for a hide comment where the password shows as a series of dots
Simple, you have been hacked and need to purchase a good antivirus scanning program and clean up your computer. Some one has compromised your computer. Also, download and use: Spybot Search & Destroy; Malwarebytes; Superantispyware and the last three programs are nice spyware & malware scanners and are free. Clean up your computer first!
Step 1: The first thing you want to do is check to see if you can get into the computer the easy way. Try signing on as a guest. If there is no "guest" option try typing in: guest then press enter. If this fails, no need to worry, just move on to the next step. If this step fails then just Hit ctrl + alt + del. Under the username put the word "administrator" and put nothing under password. Most likely this will work, since there is a secret administrators account in every computer. If by any chance this does not work: continue to the next step... If you are on the computer already and need a way to access the computer in the future without knowing the password try this: Go to the start menu, then to "control panel", click on "user accounts"... Make another account with your own password to it! This way you can sign in with your own user name and there's no need in knowing the password. The downside to this though is that the computer often displays all usernames once you sign on. Restart the computer and find out, on some computers it doesn't! This last step is a bit drastic, but you can change the password on the computer given that you are already signed on. You don't have to know the password in order to change it.

You will asked to enter the email address you registered with as a username and a password.
During the registration process facebook sent an email to the account that was registered, it contained your sign on info. If for some reason that email was deleted or never came, you can click the "forgot your password" option on facebooks main page to reset/ get a reminder of it. BUT, you need access to the email account it was all registered to.
If you do not have access to the email account, there is nothing you can do besides trying to guess the password/email address.
Sorry for the bad news, hope you find some use for it though.
