    activation- purchase acct. no longer in use


    My computer was not functioning properly so I reset win 10 professional to win 10 in hopes of reinstating my win 10 professional thru Microsoft Store which I have done in the past.


    Problem- Somehow Windows Enterprise is on there now which has nothing to do with me digitally or product key.


    I have a rogue OS so what can I do and Microsoft Store is not forthcoming with my Win 10 Pro.


    So there you have it any answers out there in the ether.


    BTW I reset computer came back again with the Enterprise version.

    :)

    My mispelledmail acct

    one of my e mail addresses is misspelled, but is one of those accts that pops up when I go to log in to an e mail acct. How do I remove this misspelled acct from this list of accts that pop up as suggestions when I begin typing in the email acct I want.

    and change the spelling

    Non Admin acct questions

    I think you may just be looking in the wrong place. When you sign out the sign in screen and password box will be for the account that has just signed out. It's the same for a restart, the sign in screen will be for the last user that had signed in.

    Sign out, then look for a list of names in the lower left corner of the sign in screen. All available accounts should be listed there, click on the one you want to change the sign in screen to be for that user. See the screenshot at step 2 in this tutorial.

    Sign in to Windows 10

    Correct, the user folder is not created until the first sign in.

    2 computers same acct...please help

    Hi, I have 2 computers in my home. Both computers have the the user name and password when logging in. Also when I go to my Microsoft acct. both are listed under devices. I would like to have it so both devices have there own log in. If I delete the other computer listed in my acct. would this solve the problem? Also, would I be able to log into the other computer since it was deleted and how would I then create a new username and password? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!!
