Yeah, just wondering?
Why you may ask?
I have an laptop and I put a random password to prevent my self from installing anything other useless apps on it when I got it other than those I needed for my school. Now I am a little bored of browsing internet all day and on social networks and talking on Skype as it is a bit sad when you hear your friends having fun on other side while you are here like meh so I would like to ask PC side of PMC if there is a way to run apps, not install them just run without admin rights and without having to hard reset the whole laptop.
If there isn't a way thou, I will factory reset it than but just want to know more if there are any easier ways, just in case.
Thanks to any one helping... I guess and have a nice day!

You can use recovery media (like a Windows installation disk) to access an elevated command prompt. From there, you can change the admin account's password.

Will try, thank you!
If I somehow fail (I am really prone to failing) than ill just reinstall the whole system.

Once you get to the command prompt, all you need to do is type:
Where <username> is the name of the admin account.
net user <username> *Where <username> is the name of the admin account.
