  1. Can't login to my PC using MS account without internet connection


    Hello,


    I have a laptop which I connected with my Microsoft account, so I can use that to login. I already tried to reinstall the laptop but it didn't help.


    Like I said, I'd like to login using my Microsoft account. However, I noticed that this is only possible when there is an internet connection. Since this is not always the case when I'm travelling, there are times when I cannot login to this laptop.


    Searching for this issue only resulted in the "solution" to just "login with a local account instead". But that's not a solution. I have a desktop PC where I also login with my Microsoft account, I tested this and it works without internet connection, so I know this is possible.


    What do I need to do to be able to login to the laptop with my Microsoft account even when there's no internet connection?

    :)

  2. Login not accepted for my MS Account

    Let me explain, again, what I have experienced:

    • I use my MS account to unlock this computer. No problem doing that
    • I attempted to use other apps requiring the MS login, like Outlook, or even this forum, and it would not accept the very same credentials I used to unlock the computer
    • I used my wife's MS account to login to this forum so that I could seek help
    • I have tried resetting my MS account twice, and that did not work either.
    I would appreciate suggestions OTHER than wha I have already tried

    New PC DRM!

    I was thinking

    Step 1: Install
    Step 2: Get a Ubi account
    Step 3: Login to Ubi
    Step 4: Enjoy the game and pray hard that internet doesn't crap on you
    Step 5: Save failed cannot find server Please wait ?.
    Step 6: Boots user to main menu. (Still no server found although your connected online )

    Can't login to my PC using MS account without internet connection

    Relocated PC can't connect to internet

    That's correct. His brother forgot the PW, But he and the machine are at the facility, and as of his post#1 had not set up any WiFi connection, so, of course, he got the "No connection" error when he tried to do the Manage Logon to reset the password. Hence, my suggestions in post #2 and #4. Otherwise, he's gonna go in circles. Has to get to a Net connection before doing anything else. He could take it back home with him, fix it, and bring it back. Somehow get a net connection. Don't see any mention of another PC.
