Windows 10: Im on lockout on my windows 11 and i would ask how should i like reset it to juet login...

I would like my post to be seen by an agent of microsoft

:)

 

MS account lockout. Unable to reset.

I am locked out of my MS account. All directions point to conventional reset help / support page requiring text verification code to reset. Problem is, I am in a rural locale (no cell service .. no texting) so unable to use that method. No other reset method appears to be available.

It is impossible to get help from MS so am VERY grateful to have found this support forum. Hope someone can help. (In any case) thanks (in advance) for suggestions.

How do I uninstall Microsoft IME on Windows 11?

Hi



Welcome to Microsoft community.

In Windows 11, the process to uninstall or manage Input Method Editors (IMEs) like Microsoft IME is slightly different than in previous versions. Here are the steps to do it:

1. Click on the 'Start' button and select 'Settings'.
   
2. In the 'Settings' window, select 'Time & Language'.
   
3. Then, select 'Typing' from the sidebar menu.
   
4. Under the 'Advanced Keyboard Settings' section, click on 'Input method' to view the installed IMEs.
   
5. Find 'Microsoft IME' in the list and click on the three dots (...) next to it.
   
6. Click 'Remove'.
   

Please note that uninstalling an IME might affect your ability to input text in the corresponding language. If you want to continue typing in Japanese but prefer a different IME, you might need to install a third-party Japanese IME before uninstalling Microsoft IME.

If these steps do not resolve your issue, or if you're unable to remove Microsoft IME through these settings, it might be a more complex issue that would require further troubleshooting.

welcome screen is not asking if i like the spotlight choice

Hi,

One of the possible reasons why your laptop is not asking if you like the spotlight choice might be because the Windows spotlight is not set as your lock screen background. To address this concern, we suggest enabling Windows spotlight as your lock screen
background. To do so, follow these steps:

• Go to Settings.
• Click on Personalization and then select Lock screen.
• Under Background, click on the drop down menu and make sure to click on Windows spotlight.
