The log in password is no different here than a Windows PC. I think you're getting the systems hardware password mixed up with the log in password that is different! You would have been greeted with a locked screen when just turning on your system before the OS (here Mac OS-X) was even loaded up.

No, it's login password. I can't access the windows os because it is password protected.
Yes, I understand. The point was there is two different systems as play here. The hardware lock and the OS (OS-X and/or Windows) lock. You need to get though the first door (hardware) before you can get to the OS door to unlock it.
Unlike a dedicated Widows system you are running a VM of Windows within Mac's OS-X (under BootCamp), which can make things harder. Here is what Microsoft has: What to do if you forget your Windows password
Did you also encrypted the drive and./or the Windows partition which would add another layer of complexity?
No, I don't encrypt the drive.
If you signed in with Microsoft account, then you can reset it easily with the account service offered by Microsoft.
For local account, you can use Windows Password Mate instead to reset the login password.

If you have forgotten the password for your Windows account and if you are using the said OS on a Mac device, then you need to use a professional password cracker program in order to reset forgotten admin password for Windows installed on your Mac.
The situation is very complicated; so you require professional help.
I hope this information will be helpful!

1- Boot your Mac
2- Go to Bootcamp folder -> then Windows-> then System32.
It's better to use the terminal.
3- Change the name of Utilman.exe to Utilman_backup.exe.
mv Utilman.exe Utilman_backup.exe
4- Then copy cmd.exe to Utilman.exe.
cp cmd.exe Utilman.exe
Download Windows 10 and click on
