  1. Cannot log onto my laptop but can log onto that same microsoft account on another computer...


    Hello, on my personal laptop i cannot log in, my microsoft account is connected to my laptop so my microsoft password is my laptop password. i have tried multiple times to change my password and log in to my laptop but it says the password is incorrect, when i log onto my personal computer tower, it works even though both pc and laptop are connected to the same microsoft account. When my laptop was still unlocked i could log in to microsoft with no problem.

    :)

    register PC with microsoft; use local account to log in

    Just simply log in with your Microsoft Account.
    Switch to Microsoft Account in Windows 10

    Just go back to using a local account:
    Switch to Local Account in Windows 10

    Hopefully the tutorials are step by step enough.

  3. laptop log in credentials

    Hi,

    We suggest that you refer to this
    Microsoft article
    and follow the steps on how to change the name on your kid's Microsoft account. Then, log out his account off the computer and log it back in.

    Let us know how it goes.

    register PC with microsoft; use local account to log in

    I bought a used laptop running Win 10 Pro. winver reports 1809.
    How do I register my PC with my Microsoft account?
    But when I'm done, I'd like to use my local account each time to log in.
    Please tell me how to do that.
    I am very new at Win 10, and need step by step instructions.

    Thanks,
