    Windows is still telling me that it does not recognize my password. I have already changed the password a couple of times and the computer still doesn't let me log in.

  2. How to change the login password for the account?

    Hi Gregor,

    To assist you better, I would like to know whether you are logging into the computer with Microsoft account.

    If you are using the Microsoft account to log in, I would like to inform you that it is not possible to sign into Windows without the password.

    If you would like to change the password for the Microsoft Account, I suggest you to refer to the link provided below and check if that helps.

    Change or reset your Windows password

    If you would like to change the password for the local account, please follow the below steps:


    • Press "Windows" and now the Start Menu will appear, click on your account on the top, and then select
      "Change account settings".

    • You may also select
      "Settings"
      on the Start Menu, click "Accounts" to open the Accounts settings.

    • Choose "Sign-in options" on the left panel, and then click on
      "Change" button below Password on the right panel.

    • Now Enter your current password and click on
      "Next" to continue.

    • Enter and reenter your new password, and enter the password hint, and then click on
      "Next" to modify your user local account password.
    However, you may create a local account/user account and use that account to sign in, so that it will not ask you for the password when signing in.

    Once you have created a local account, Please follow the below steps, if you would like sign in to a user account without password.

    • Press Windows +
      R.
    • Type netplwiz.exe
    • Uncheck this box “Users must enter a username and password to use this computer” and press apply.
    • Automatically sign in password box prompts. Write your Password twice and press OK.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
