From what you have read the title, I forgot my laptop's password in order to log into it.

I tried doing "Forgot Password/Recover Password", but it asks for a USB or Password Disk... but that doesn't work either. Is there anyway to remove my password to get back into my laptop, because I have so much important things in there. Any type of help would be appreciated.
Operating System: Windows 10 - HP Dell Pavilion Laptop
