    OneDrive not accepting my passwords?


    I use my OneDrive account across my phone, laptop, and desktop. I constantly have to change the password because OneDrive keeps signing me out and making me sign back in again whenever I switch from one device to the other. But whenever I change the password for my Microsoft account on one of my devices, when I attempt to log in on another one of my devices, Microsoft will not accept my new password, and I have to change it yet again. The worst part is when I then change the password and attempt to change it to the most recent password- that, let me remind you, it will not accept as being my password- I am informed that it's an old password and therefore I am unable to use it. I don't understand what's happening and it is very, very irritating to constantly have to change and remember passwords.


    Is there a way I can change this? Why does this keep happening? Why can't I just be logged in on my three devices at once without OneDrive constantly logging me out and forcing me to change my credentials? PLEASE HELP.

    :)

    Starting in Safe Mode - Password is not accepted


    My suggestion only.

    If you have time, please do a Repair Install.

    Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

    If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.

    OneDrive not accepting my passwords?

    Starting in Safe Mode - Password is not accepted


    Hi,

    I would like to start Windows 10 in Safe Mode, but when doing so and asked for my password it will not work.

    I normally use a pin code. The only password I can remember to have used on this machine is the password used with Microsoft OneDrive and it is not accepted when trying to log in... This password is however accepted when starting normally (without Safe Mode).

    Any ideas what can be wrong and how I can access Safe Mode?
