The password reset disc created using "User Accounts" in Windows 10 is for use ONLY on the machine upon which it was created.
So for example if you own two computers then you will need to create a pasword reset disc on each computer for use only on that particular computer.
That password reset disc will not work on any other computer apart from the one on which it was created.
If you wanted to reset the password on a computer that you do not own then we are not prepared to assist you. Please see our site's Terms of Use

It used to work on Windows 7 computer,but now it doesn't work on Windows 10 computer.When plugged into a Windows 10 computer, it says"No boot devices found".
Yes, see my reply above,
It needs to be a disc created on the machine concerned.
It is not intended to be used on any other machine.
For people who use Windows 10,the best way is to go to the Microsoft website for downloading Windows 10 iso, and Microsoft website has some steps about how to make a password reset disk for Windows 10.It will be more helpful to you.
Microsoft website will tell you how to make a Windows installation media:https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/software-download/windows10so that you can reset the password.
