  1. I cannot sign into my laptop.


    I updated the drivers on my hp laptop. I am using Windows 10 OS. When I restarted the laptop I now just get the homescreen picture showing time and date on the left and the WiFi and battery condition icons on the bottom right. There is nothing else. There is no cursor and the keyboard does not work. I am unable to do anything other than turn it on and off using the power button. Any ideas please?

    :)

  3. password sign in

    Hi,

    About your concern with typing the password after being idle, it is actually recommended to activate for security reasons.

    If you wish to disable it, I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    • Go to Settings.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Click on Sign in options.
    • On the right side, you will see required sign in.
    • Change it to Never.

    Let us know how it goes.

    I cannot sign into my laptop.

    Inability to sign on to my laptop

    Hi,



    It's possible for you to change the sign-in method of your computer once you're logged in. Since you can't remember your password, if you're using your Microsoft account, we suggest that you follow the steps
    provided in this article: When you can't sign in to your Microsoft account.
    If you're using a local account, follow the steps here instead: Reset
    your Windows 10 local account password
    .



    Once you're able to sign in, you can change the sign-in options by following these steps:


    • Click Start.

    • Type Sign-in options.

    • Press Enter.

    • Under PIN, click Add.

    • Enter your password or any other required information when prompted and click
      OK.

    • Enter at PIN number with at least 4 digits and click OK.



    Let us know if you need help with any other concerns.
