One of the security features of Windows is that it allows you to set a password for the user accounts on the computer. That way, every time a user wants to use the computer, he or she needs to choose his or her account and then enter a password to be able to use the computer.
That way the files for the users are kept safe and private and only authorized users having the correct password can access them. You may have an admin account and some other normal accounts on your computer so everybody can use it.
Sometimes, users forget the password for their user account. This usually happens when you have not logged-in to your account for a long time or your password was very complex and was not easy to memorize. Either way, if you have forgotten the password, then, well, there is no way to recover it -- unless you use a third-party app as mentioned below.
