How do I change the administrator user account password in windows 10

I can not find any access to password for the Administrator user account. I have tried many options but that one is never listed. I am the administrator and there are no other accounts.

If you're the administrator, and there are no other accounts, try the below steps.

Settings -> Accounts -> Sign-in options -> Change your password

That should do it. Does that do it?

Thanks, but as I said there is no option for changing password with that approach. However, I had reason to use the power switch to close down and saw when I get into the system screen there is an option which worked. Not sure that was the only way the only one I found.

Thanks anyway.

Honestly, i have disabled the default administrator account (after establishing a password of course). I have created a local named administrator account and I log on as a standard user with my MS account.
