  1. Can no longer log into Windows on my old PC


    Early this year, I purchased a new laptop and then stopped using my old laptop. Not long afterwards, I switched to a new email address. I updated my Windows account to reflect this new email address. Something went awry with my Windows Hello PIN and so I updated it today. Now we switch to my old laptop, which I used up until I purchased the new laptop I referenced: When I go to log in to the old laptop, I am presented with ONLY the field to enter my PIN. I have no clue what my old PIN was. I enter the wrong one, and it presents me with an MS Sign in window which is pre-filled with my old e

  2. Unlink an old android phone from my pc

    I go thru the suggested steps: Start - Settings - Phone - Unlink this PC.

    When I first open the "your phone" screen the old phone is listed. Not sure if the phone listed is suppose to be selectable or not, but my is not. When I select "Unlink this PC" the phone listed is removed. When I select "Add Phone" the old phone still
    shows. I have removed the old phone from my Microsoft Account. I have rebooted after unlink this pc but I still cannot remove my old phone.

    Can't log-in to windows 10

    If you have recently changed your Microsoft password, we suggest that you try using your old password and check if you will be able to log in. We also recommend that you connect your computer to the internet while logging in.

    If the issue persists, let's start your PC in safe mode. Safe mode starts Windows in a basic state, using a limited set of files and drivers. For steps on how to start your PC in safe mode, refer to the following link:
    Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10.

    To isolate the cause of this issue, we would like to know the following information:

    • Are you using a Microsoft account or a local account on your computer?
    • What is the exact error message that you receive when logging in?

    Looking forward to your reply.
