Windows 10: I cannot get past the first page on my laptop, I'm using the same pin/password but it won't...

Hello I have just updated my laptop with windows 10 I also reloaded my Epson printer. Now for some unexplained reason I cannot get past the first page. I have entered the pin/password that I have used forever and still cannot get it to work. When I first got laptop I put my land line as the number to get in touch with me , but of course I can't get a text. What the heck can I do.

Forgotten PIN and expired password

Hi Dyari,

Thanks for your answer.

I tried steps of both links:

• #1: reset PIN code
  
  • I see no link "reset your PIN"on login page --> I can't reset it
    
• #2: change or reset windows password
  
  • My Windows account is not displayed at all on login page.
    
  • I am using a local account
    

If you have any other suggestion, I would be more than happy to try.

Regards,

Guillaume

 

After Windows 10 update, signin screen won`t accept my pssword.

Sign-in screen won`t take my password after Windows 10 update on a new HP laptop. I had setup a pin login but now asks for Microsoft password which I wrote down and have used before but will not accept now.
