Locked out of my computer

Home More advice Computers & Tech

I did something very stupid about a week ago. I use an administrative account on my computer and have for quite a while now. On that one night about a week ago I had a friend stay over at my house. I didn't want them to go through my files, so I created a password. Now, I can't remember what that password may be. I've spent large quantities of time trying to guess the password and that's left me no farther then where I started. Is there ANY way I can bypass the welcome screen or bypass giving the password? That way, I can remove the password and all this can be over and done with! Right now I'm just on a secondary account on the computer. I need to get on that account. I need some of the files, music, photos, etc. I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET. Thank you.
