  1. Can’t get into account on wi does 10


    Last night I finally decided to buy windows 10 after using windows 8 for years. All the installation went fine. Now is the big issue. When I try to log on to my account, it wants me to sign in to Microsoft. The problem is, it’s a VERY old Hotmail email that I haven’t used in 15+ years. When I try to reset the password, it just emails me back saying it’s been locked. I don’t remember any of the security answers for it as it’s been that long. Am I screwed here?

    Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

    Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

    I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

    It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

    EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown Can’t get into account on wi does 10 :(
