    How to log in the way she was before, without a password?


    I have someone that was logging into her computer with no password, and perhaps no username if that's possible. Just a local account I'm assuming. I don't know what she did, but now when turning on her computer she says it is asking her for a password, and I'm assuming it's a Microsoft account that she probably inadvertently setup in the apps area. And of course she does not know what her password is. Is there a way without logging into the computer now to log in the way she was before, without a password?

    :)
     

  2. Windows 10 Family Safety Extension Requests How To?

    When my daughter reaches the end of her time for the day, she is forced to log off without the ability to request more time. Additionally, when she logs back in she gets a message saying her time is up and that she needs to request more time or log in
    using a different account. I can't find anywhere for her to request more time though. The only way I have figured out to give her a screen extension is to turn screen limits completely off - defeating the purpose of the screen limits in the first place. Can
    you tell me how to make this work?

  3. How to log into the computer without a Microsoft Account.

    Original Title: PC Password

    Although Windows 10 is better than either version of 8, it has introduced very intrusive links between the work you do on your PC and what Microsoft can now collect from you as personal information - where you shop were you buy, what you buy, where you are
    (location) and I don't know what else. Part of this is the requirement to login to MICROSOFT when you login to your PC that you paid for. I am not happy with this development.

    Is there ANY way I can remove the MICROSOFT PASSWORD from my login to WINDOWS 10? It is my PC so I should have administrator rights on it - if that is how I must do it how do I get to the administrative part of Windows 10?

    Thanks
