  1. I do not want to use my email address or a pin to login AT ALL


    I followed instructions for removing a pin. Well, guess what, that does not work. I am then told I need a code that Microsoft will send me via my EMAIL account, which I cannot login to cuz I need a code they sent me via email. I cannot access the email as it is on the web, it is not a microsoft email. I was ticked off having to do that, yet again. You may own the product, but I purchased it and do not feel it is up to your corporation to make me login as you choose.I do not want to login using a pin. I do not want my email address used for the Microsoft Store. It seems to me it does not provide security, it is only a way to get me hooked up with your store and your products. I live alone, computer is for personal use only. I want to just turn my computer on and use it, no beating around the bush in order to do so.

    :)

  2. old email addresses

    Thank you for updating me HA.111

    Here is the step to remove that old email address.

    Start typing an email address into the “To” field. As soon as you see the old email address being recommended as one of the potential candidates, use the down arrow key to scroll through the list of suggestions. Once you highlight the old email address, type the delete key. In many cases, this will actually remove the entry not only from the current list of suggestions but from future suggestions as well. You may even find that as you mouse over the drop-down list the highlighted item will have an “x” to explicitly allow you to delete it.

    Just do this step and your good to go.

    Continue to have an escellent day HA.111

    Best regards,

  3. OSK PIN login on non-touch device

    Hello,

    I suggest you to create a PIN for your device and try the on screen keyboard to login to the same.

    You may follow the steps below to create PIN protection for your device.


    • Go to Settings and select account.

    • Click on sign in option and Go to PIN option.

    • Now click on Add and set PIN for login.

    You can use the same PIN to login to your device using the on screen Keyboard from ease of access option and verify the result.

    Please get back to us with updated status. We will be happy to assist you further.
