    Cannot login to Microsoft Account through windows settings menu's in Windows 10 [adding...


    I recently updated my Windows 10 version and was reviewing all my settings and wanted to make changes to my settings to connect my account to my device but i have run into issues with the login. For the login the email is requested, then the password is requested and then password is requested again a second time, it is here were it says that the password input is incorrect even through it worked on the first request. I have tried resetting passwords multiple times but i still keep getting this issue on the 2nd password request.

    Please note this is the same input i used to login to my Microsoft account thru my internet browser.


    Is there a reason why my password input is recognized on the 1st request and then not recognized on the immediate subsequent 2nd request for password input?

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”

  3. Microsoft Selects Dolby Audio for Windows 10

    it would've been great if microsoft added HEVC decoders, LAV filters along with other codecs with Windows 10, and developing WMP to be better than VLC, KMPlayer and such sorts of media players.

    Nevertheless, this is good step for microsoft, by far.
