When Windows Update installed some search bar in the taskbar it must have corrupted the OS (no other hardware or software lately). BSOD saying 'memory management' a load of times, but I cannot do most of the repair options as Windows is looking for a password. I deliberately never have a password on this PC but MS must have forced me sometime and I have no idea what it is and there seems to be no way to recover it as there is no password reminder question.

I can't believe there is no way to reset the Windows password on a Local account. I've tried the MS 'help' and seemingly there is no way, which seems bizarre.

Any workarounds?
Thanks,
 
Finally got back in to Windows but it's messed up. Can't get in to Windows Update - "Something went wrong. Try to reopen Settings later"

Can you even repair Windows 10 without the password?
