  1. How can I create a new app password


    To create a new app password, this page says:
    • Go to the Security basics page and sign in to your Microsoft account.
    • Select More security options.
    • Under App passwords, select Create a new app password. A new app password is generated and appears on your screen.
    But I have found no 'App passwords' option/button in that page. Please help — how can I do this?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

      • Select Change password.
      • Enter your current password, then the new password that you want to use, then enter the new password again.
      • Select Save.


    Try the following steps to create a password reset disk for a local user account.

    • Login to your computer using the local account you want to create a password reset disk for.
    • Insert a USB drive or SD card into the computer.
