Been not using my laptop for a month, then saw error that my pin no longer working. Tried to access my microsoft accoun but it will take 30 days to get my account. Been wasting 4 hours to watch different vids and troubleshoot my laptop AND this is the only video that help and works on me. Thank you so much
I had this problem too. Said another process was using msoftware. I just just retraced my steps over again and did it from scratch. Pretend system32 didn’t show up for you. Use his recommended route for if system32 didn’t show up. This worked for me.
I now have the password option, but it doesn't accept my password, and the forgot password option doesn't work. After clicking on the forgot password, it gives an error saying "The system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this application "
Hi both method not working for me. I can't find the passwordless, and when i used the other method i am prompted that the process can't access the file because it is being used by another process.
@techgini when I'm trying to name the software to msoftware it is saying that the process can't access the file because it is being used by another process Please help quickly
First of all when I click on troubleshoot it doesn’t give me the same option it just goes straight to advanced options and then there is no open command prompt there is, “enable safe mode with command prompt” but when I click on it it doesn’t open the command prompt just goes straight back to the Lock Screen.
For anyone still struggling i found workarounds for 2 of the issues i had 1- if msoftware gives you an error when you type it you just have to access the file manually by going to following what he says to get it 2- if your login isnt working and it says your password is wrong then you have to input your microsoft password
I was getting an error message when after typing msoftware "The process cannot acces the fule because it is being used by another process" what should i do now ?
Yeah right when you enter the system32 part of the process use the search bar up to change the disk to C: or where you windows was installed there you can find the system32 and proceed
If there is an error U can't type the msoftware just do it manually by going on this pc it worked only problem is I did everything correct now it says my password is incorrect
YOU ARE MY FUCKING HERO!!!!!! Just imagine having the brilliant idea at 5:00 AM to update the BIOS and discover this error, i wasn't enable to reset the pin since the windows pop up keeps closing. i've followed tons of other useless videos and microsoft forum and guides but nothing worked except your video at the 7:45 AM now i can finally go to sleep after nearly having several panick attacks from the idea of losing my current work.

My issue is that it asks me to choose an account to use command prompt and when I choose the account and enter the password it says it's incorrect so I can't access command prompt If you have any solution please let me know i would really appreciate it
If it still says, the password is incorrect, try this. Hold shift and press restart, after a restart, you can stop pressing it. Go into troubleshooting, advanced setting, command, enter: bcdedit /deletevalue {default) safeboot. Press enter. Then you can reboot the PC.

@@danielolubi3091yeah sorry… I can’t really help in this case because I don’t know what it looks like and the cause of the problem because I’ve never faced that problem before, but I advise you to search on Microsoft community. A lot of my PC issues was solved though here.

I dont have passwrodless at all, from both videos. What to do? I want to disable my pin. I cant even enter. Or how do i save everything on my desktop now to a harddrive?
Didn't work. Done everything till the last step, yet when I restarted it again I still cannot enter my PIN and my password is still listed as "incorrect". When I attempt to do the entire thing for a second time, I could not find "PasswordLess" when I got to the "Current Version" part and subsequent actions could not be performed too. Microsoft "help" centre's best advice is to let me erase my whole laptop's data (then what's the point??) and not even this video---with overwhelmingly positive reviews apparently---could help. Someone send help please, my laptop just randomly decided to say that my pin is no longer availble after a security settings change (when I did nothing) and now no matter what I do I am stuck in the lock screen and could not get back in my computer (with tons of important data). Screw you Microsoft. edit: After helps from other tutorials I managed to get "PasswordLess" to show again but even after that I realised that number thingy I had to change from 2 to 0 was already set to 0---likely because I did it on my first try. That just kind of means that this tutorial did not help me since I've done everything in the tutorial correctly, all the way from restarting+shift to changing "2" to "0". What a shame really
This actually is the perfect tutorial for the problem i was having, i was pulling my hair out with stress, as i have all my employee data and important documents on my pc that if lost could result in a large loss of momey, thank you so much! ❤
Omg!! Me funcionó perfectamente, llevaba 3 meses sin poder usarla intentando diferentes tutorial es y este por fin me ayudó, muchas graciaaaaaaaaaaaas!!
In case anyone still cant get in after having the password option. I had changed my microsoft login name a while back and needed to change it back to the original alias through the microsoft website on a different pc before it would let me log in with a password. Thanks for showing us this. This was the only thing that helped me.
thanks man for anybody face some problems about file is using by another program 1- you must restart your windows with holding shift button then continue the steps 2- after enter cmd file ... you should enter the main driver (like C or D ...) not (x ) driver 2- for the last step about passwordless file (you must create the file manually )

After clicking on any advenced option including command prompt it demands my microsoft account password as it is in your video. However, whether I type in my password or leave it blank it doesn't let me through. It says wrong password. Yet, Im sure that Im typing my correct windows password cause I checked it on my phone and the password is valid. Please help. I lost my pin screen. Cause I accedentally checked the diagnostic startup option before closing. The pin bar isn't available and I can't reach the advanced options as well.
Bro I did this but still have the same problem its still giving me the same error....this happened after a downloaded a cracked game from oceanofgames and disabled my windows defender 😭
did not work for me. error Cannot load c:\Windows\System32\config\SOFTWARE: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
I put in my Microsoft password but it says its incorrect even if the password is correct. My computer had a pin set up, but not password. Does it not work because its not set up the password on cumputer?
Ran into this issue suddenly after upgrading my CPU and AIO. Microsoft Support basically suggested wiping everything. Thank you for saving all my data! This was super helpful.
Please help! When I do these t steps the screen stays black and we get no other options! We hold shift and restart. No Signal eventually flashes the. Screen stays black.
Your video is very helpful bro It works But now I forgot my password. 😞 After using the Restore point option I can now enter a PIN without a password But some programs that were installed after the restore point are uninstalled
I am building a new pc with my old hard drive, everything is done but when I turn it on (not connected to WiFi yet literally can’t get to that step) I try to sign in and it says my security settings have changed and I need WiFi, how tf am I supposed to connect if I can’t sign in
I don't have "advanced options" after clicking on troubleshooting. Is there another way to get to cmd or a completely different method to get past the login screen? Only other option I can think of is making a USB using someone else's machine to repair windows.
Bro the problem with me is different. I have two options : 1. Something happened and your pin isn't available. 2. I Can login with a password. The problem : But when i login nothing on my laptop works for eg no microsoft apps, i have no edge access, and i can't change my pin too. Neither can i factory reset. I can just open my laptop using the password and do nothing. I tried entering safe mode, then deleting nfc folder, tried your prompts, nothing works.
Thank you, but it's asking me to input my password. Unfortunately, none of the passwords I remember are working. There is no other options and so therefore can't get to do the rest of the fixes.
This was very helpful. I did have issues getting to my system 32. My "C" drive read "Empty" and I was unable to get anything once selecting "Load Hive". So I believe I went to the "X" Drive where I stumbled across System 32 and followed his directions. Now I am up and running, I am going to disable it this time around. Thank you GREATLY!
Hi, after i followed the step by step procedure, i have a problem in portion when i input the word “msoftware”. it say”the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process”. what will i do? appreciate your time sir. Thanks!

Really really very very thanks my friend you just saved my life. For those who are getting 1)"The process cannot access the file because its running in another process" Solution:- You have open system32 through c disk manually. If u are enable access c disk, For that u need enter your Microsoft account recovery key when clicking on command prompt in advanced options. 2)If pressing shift key doest work Soln:- shut down and start again while holding esc button. If any queries pls do replyy...
Worked for me. Just do exactly as he does it from 1:52 like you have to find the file manually, as he does it and then you won't get the msoftware error
For me post selecting the command prompt tab in the advance option, its moving to select user account and there is only one user administrator account which is me only and I don't remember my password and pin is not working. Please help what to do.... I got in this problem OS upgrade from Windows 10 to 11
Every video was not helping including this one i go to adavmce and click command prompt but my password will just not work what do i dp and do i have to buy a new pc
I cant use the fkn command prompt if it prompts entering a password. And then microsoft doesnt even acknowledge the pass is right even though i just reset the mf and went password less. Its still asking for a password wtf
The shift key doesn’t do anything ,it goes back to a normal screen ,there are other ways to enter the advanced option screen but even then password is required for every change you trying to make ,so if you don’t remember your password it’s pointless

Didn't work. Done everything till the last step, yet when I restarted it again I still cannot enter my PIN and my password is still listed as "incorrect". When I attempt to do the entire thing for a second time, I could not find "PasswordLess" when I got to the "Current Version" part and subsequent actions could not be performed too. Microsoft "help" centre's best advice is to let me erase my whole laptop's data (then what's the point??) and not even this video---with overwhelmingly positive reviews apparently---could help. Someone send help please, my laptop just randomly decided to say that my pin is no longer availble after a security settings change (when I did nothing) and now no matter what I do I am stuck in the lock screen and could not get back in my computer (with tons of important data). Screw you Microsoft.
edit: After helps from other tutorials I managed to get "PasswordLess" to show again but even after that I realised that number thingy I had to change from 2 to 0 was already set to 0---likely because I did it on my first try. That just kind of means that this tutorial did not help me since I've done everything in the tutorial correctly, all the way from restarting+shift to changing "2" to "0". What a shame really
how did u get passwordless ?
Lets all be honest, we never had these problems 10 years ago. I miss windows 7
Your video has been really helpful
I was stressing about it the whole day thankfully i came across this video

Omg!! Me funcionó perfectamente, llevaba 3 meses sin poder usarla intentando diferentes tutorial es y este por fin me ayudó, muchas graciaaaaaaaaaaaas!!
Remember there's always an Indian guy~ 🥹
For my laptop at 2:15 local disk ("c:") is not there. in its place i have local disk("E:") pls help me any one
In case anyone still cant get in after having the password option. I had changed my microsoft login name a while back and needed to change it back to the original alias through the microsoft website on a different pc before it would let me log in with a password. Thanks for showing us this. This was the only thing that helped me.
Mano, muito obrigado, me ajudou demais
thanks man
for anybody face some problems about file is using by another program
1- you must restart your windows with holding shift button then continue the steps
2- after enter cmd file ... you should enter the main driver (like C or D ...) not (x ) driver
2- for the last step about passwordless file (you must create the file manually )
When i put in the hkey_local_machine it just says cannot load the process because its being used by another process
Same

Hello, were you able to solve it? I have the same problem 😿

Same need help
Same!
After typing the msoftware key, it says the process cannot be access the file because it is being used by another process
Hello, I understand the problem of the password being wrong, you must enter the password of your Microsoft account after completing this process, not the password of your computer or laptop. Oh god, no one had mentioned this
If you can't find the desired file or you can't rename it, just choose another name, then that folder will be created and the warning that someone else is using it will not be displayed anymore.
msoftware isnt working if i type it and i cant find the password less thing some1 pls help me
It's showing loading screen when I click on sign in options
After clicking on any advenced option including command prompt it demands my microsoft account password as it is in your video. However, whether I type in my password or leave it blank it doesn't let me through. It says wrong password. Yet, Im sure that Im typing my correct windows password cause I checked it on my phone and the password is valid. Please help. I lost my pin screen. Cause I accedentally checked the diagnostic startup option before closing. The pin bar isn't available and I can't reach the advanced options as well.
I have the same problem now
Bro I did this but still have the same problem its still giving me the same error....this happened after a downloaded a cracked game from oceanofgames and disabled my windows defender 😭
This is much better than microsoft support! If ur system says "already in use" follow the manual selection process he shows.
Mine gives me an error code that is being used by another process I’m so stuck
mine actually asked for the administrator password and i forgot! T_T it doesnt allow me to use the command prompt
Did you fix it?
did not work for me. error Cannot load c:\Windows\System32\config\SOFTWARE: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
Mine too what's the solution
Cannot load . The process cannot access the file because it is being by another process
I put in my Microsoft password but it says its incorrect even if the password is correct. My computer had a pin set up, but not password. Does it not work because its not set up the password on cumputer?
Did u fix?
@@scarletwarlock9325 no, I ended up bringing it to a specialist, he reinstalled windows on it. Now is all good
Dont do all this bs just use a restore system point
Hey brother, when i type msoftware, it says the process cannot access the file because its being used by another process

I am also facing same issue
@@MaheshYadav-qr2gf yes, thats basically reset and start new
This blue screen does not come up pleaseee help!! I get a different blue screen with a QR code!!
Ran into this issue suddenly after upgrading my CPU and AIO. Microsoft Support basically suggested wiping everything. Thank you for saving all my data! This was super helpful.
Please help! When I do these t steps the screen stays black and we get no other options! We hold shift and restart. No Signal eventually flashes the. Screen stays black.
Your video is very helpful bro
It works
But now I forgot my password. 😞
After using the Restore point option I can now enter a PIN without a password
But some programs that were installed after the restore point are uninstalled
This method will not work on a PC where bitlocker is enabled
I am building a new pc with my old hard drive, everything is done but when I turn it on (not connected to WiFi yet literally can’t get to that step) I try to sign in and it says my security settings have changed and I need WiFi, how tf am I supposed to connect if I can’t sign in
Can't name key as msoftware because I get message that the process can't access the file because another process is using it. Stuck.
Is it fixed can u help me
I don't have "advanced options" after clicking on troubleshooting. Is there another way to get to cmd or a completely different method to get past the login screen? Only other option I can think of is making a USB using someone else's machine to repair windows.
Why does this happens? I was playing Fallout 3 and all of the sudden my laptop turned off and that popped up
I followed the prompts but got a message “cannot load config software: Cannot access the file because it is being used by another process
I followed everything and my signing options is available but when i click “pin” it doesn’t do anything
Bro passwordless folder is no exist
I don’t see passwordless option 3:07
Have you find any solution?
Bro the problem with me is different. I have two options :
1. Something happened and your pin isn't available.
2. I Can login with a password.
The problem :
But when i login nothing on my laptop works for eg no microsoft apps, i have no edge access, and i can't change my pin too. Neither can i factory reset. I can just open my laptop using the password and do nothing. I tried entering safe mode, then deleting nfc folder, tried your prompts, nothing works.
Thank you, but it's asking me to input my password. Unfortunately, none of the passwords I remember are working. There is no other options and so therefore can't get to do the rest of the fixes.
This was very helpful. I did have issues getting to my system 32. My "C" drive read "Empty" and I was unable to get anything once selecting "Load Hive". So I believe I went to the "X" Drive where I stumbled across System 32 and followed his directions. Now I am up and running, I am going to disable it this time around. Thank you GREATLY!
Hi, after i followed the step by step procedure, i have a problem in portion when i input the word “msoftware”. it say”the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process”. what will i do? appreciate your time sir. Thanks!
Hi, mery laptop main bhi yehi problem ha but restart keeny per ap k pas Jo option arhy hn WO mery pass bhi arhy thi main ek bar kia to nahi ho raha 2nd time main mery pas on turn off ka option araha ha,ku??
Really really very very thanks my friend you just saved my life.
For those who are getting
1)"The process cannot access the file because its running in another process"
Solution:- You have open system32 through c disk manually.
If u are enable access c disk,
For that u need enter your Microsoft account recovery key when clicking on command prompt in advanced options.
2)If pressing shift key doest work
Soln:- shut down and start again while holding esc button.
If any queries pls do replyy...
Worked for me. Just do exactly as he does it from 1:52 like you have to find the file manually, as he does it and then you won't get the msoftware error
For me post selecting the command prompt tab in the advance option, its moving to select user account and there is only one user administrator account which is me only and I don't remember my password and pin is not working. Please help what to do....
I got in this problem OS upgrade from Windows 10 to 11
Have you connected to the internet?
Every video was not helping including this one i go to adavmce and click command prompt but my password will just not work what do i dp and do i have to buy a new pc
Holding shift key and restarting doesn't give me blue screen. Please help😢
Did you find a way to fix it I’m having the same issue
I cant put password cant switch password when i go to troubleshoot advance option to even go into command prompt is missing so im stuck
software..this file is in use.
enter a new name or close the file that'sopen in another program
I cant use the fkn command prompt if it prompts entering a password. And then microsoft doesnt even acknowledge the pass is right even though i just reset the mf and went password less. Its still asking for a password wtf
Please help, after clicking command prompt, not receiving black screen. Goes straight to password, which still does not help, am at a loss, thanks.
Help ! I was able to sign in ,but my sign in options in settings is infinite loop so I can’t disable pin
Holding shift key and restart not working 😢 , what to do?
Guys I was at the shift and reset pc part but that more options thing doesn't show up at me what should I do?
The shift key doesn’t do anything ,it goes back to a normal screen ,there are other ways to enter the advanced option screen but even then password is required for every change you trying to make ,so if you don’t remember your password it’s pointless
Hi! I don’t have a password list?
