Hi folks

Unfortunately my brother died by suicide unexpectedly and we're all at a bit of a loss. I went through some of his stuff and found his laptop, and although it works it needs a pin to get in. Problem is, we dont know it and I can't figure it out off the top of my head (guessing birthdays etc.)

To be honest, its his private laptop so I might not ever actually want to get in it anyways, but before I make any decisions or offer anything to my family, I just wanted to check if it was actually possible to bypass the windows pin and get in to the user without wiping the files.

Would appreciate any info

Thanks
