    Oh. I didn't know that - thought something had gone wrong because of a coincidental BSOD. Thanks *Smile

    Hello Shawn mate the partners granddaughters laptop I have tried resetting the password for one she wants using all options but am getting balked at every step the easiest one I thought to use - Option 1 requires a text message back from Microsoft with a digital code to be entered but the text message never arrives!!

    So either I have entered the wrong phone number - possible but unlikely or that she has just changed phones (using same SIM card) and the phone for whatever reason is not being recognised by Microsoft though I think that is again unlikely.

    Any ideas because the lusermgr option would not open for me on the machine*Confused

    Has anyone figured out how to reset the outlook and office 365 business account password at the same time(Via a script or another method)? I use the same email address for the outlook account and office365 business account. Would be great if I could find a way to reset both passwords at the same time.

    Hello tekrgcp, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

    Do you have another administrator account that you could sign in to and change that other account's password from?
