Windows 10: Can't fix account after forced password update

MS said it noticed unusual activity, and it showed a geographic location that was inaccurate, so I thought maybe it wasn't authorized after all.I was forced to reset a password, and now, I get this error when Mail tries to "fix" my account, and I can't get any of my desktop apps to let me sign in again, and I can't verify the account through settings now.I get this error when the automatic fix is tried. There isn't any helpful info that I've found on a search. This just happened, so I am pretty sure it's related to the password reset, but there's no way to update it. Edge also won't let me sig

77000 Steam accounts hacked every month

Ironically I've had the same crappy password since I made my Steam when HL2 came out and never been hacked, but I've had my Origin account jacked twice with a much more complicated password. 2 step on Origin fixed this problem, but just thought it was kind of funny. I went with 2 step on Steam to be safe too.

 

Local Account password changed to Online Account Password

Hi,

I suggest you to follow the steps on how to switch from Microsoft account to Local account:

• Click on search in taskbar and type account.
• Click on Accounts.
• Now, under Your account, click on Sign in with Local account instead.
• Enter your Microsoft account password for confirmation and then follow the screen instruction.
• Enter User name credentials for your the Local account and click OK.
• Now, login to Local account.

Hope it helps.

 

Long boot time and passwords missing

The only reason I mention the account is that a Windows update recently was causing people to be signed into a temporary account, your password manager may be installed for all users but the list of passwords would be user specific, therefore the blank password list suggests a different account. *Smile
