  1. Cannot verify passwords on my PC because of "Your security info change is still pending"


    I cannot verify my idenity for passwords on this pc. I click settings, accounts, sync your settings, click on the "Verify" link in the menu for passwords. But I get "Your security info change is still pending" with a Cancel button instead of a Next button. When I press Cancel nothing happens, does this mean I'm screwed and I can't access my Google Chrome passwords + a few more passwords? Nothing shows up in my passwords menu, autofill doesn't work, and I tried to change my email because of it was a dead email.

    :)

    How to change password for login without verifying security info?.

    Thanks for the reply, but I have already changed my security info, and it says that it is pending. I cant change my password without verifying my identity on my pc, which means I have to wait a month. Is it possible to change the password to log into my
    account specifically on this computer without verifying, replacing or editing any of my Microsoft account details?

    Hi Samuwella,

    Sorry for the loss, not to worry we will try our best to assist you with the issue you are facing with Windows 10 account security.

    Lets follow the below steps to fix the issue with Windows 10.

    1. We Suggest you to refer to the below article on "Get back into your Microsoft account if it's been compromised".
    How to recover a hacked or compromised Microsoft account

    2. Also refer to the below article on "How do I replace my security info"?
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/10634/microsoft-account-replace-all-security-info

    3. Two-step verification helps protect you by making it more difficult for someone else to sign in to your Microsoft account. It uses two different forms of identity: your password, and a contact method (also known as security
    info). Even if someone else finds your password, they'll be stopped if they don't have access to your security info.

    Refer the steps in the link :

    How to use two-step verification with your Microsoft account

    Keep us informed with the above information for better assistance.

    How to change password for login without verifying security info?.

    Original title : Login Password Changing.

    On WIN10 is there a way of changing the pass for login without verifying security info? My account has been compromised and I need to change the password. I originally set my authenticator as my phone (after finding out it was compromised), I had to wait
    a month, which was bad enough. What was worse was that my phone broke towards the end of the month, so I now have to change my authenticator to email, meaning I will have to wait another month to change the password, allowing people to enter my account as
    they please during this time?
