Access to the SAM file using CHNTPW

sudo apt-get install chntpw

Mount the windows drive.

Access the Windows/System32/config directory.

Issue the command sudo chntpw SAM.

sudo chntpw -l SAM to show users

You should now have a variety of options to manage your windows partition

Windows 10 may have a hibernation file that prevents read-write access.  GParted can get around this on mount.  Once mounted and verified you can get back into ubuntu and run chntpw.
