Windows 10: I tried numerous times to change my windows sign in password and it still doesn't accept...

1. 4 DIGIT Pin 2. Password.Now addressing the issue, i changed that password online by signing into the Microsoft account however the password doesn't appear to be changed.It either pops up the ENTERED PASSWORD DONT MATCH or YOUR USERNAME OR PSWD IS INCORRECT. And this is going on forever now!!Hope the community can help me understand and fix this.In addition, i am also receiving a confirmation e mail on outlook that my password has been changed but it i am unable to sign in with the updated password. And if i can get some help in finding my user name, because i tried all the possible Username

Changed my Microsoft account password but windows login keeps accepting old password

Hi,

I have a Microsoft account (to be specific, it's a Passport account. I created it with a gmail account) and I recently changed my password and activated two-step verification with Microsoft Authenticator app.

The new password works perfectly in any web page, but doesn´t work when I try to login in my notebook. Windows login keeps accepting old password, and doesn´t accept the new one.

Am I doing something wrong or this is some kind of bug?

Thanks.

Changing sign-in password clue

Hello, Andy. It is completely possible to change your password hint on Windows 10 without going through all the “rigmarole *chuckle” of changing the password. Just do this: Step 1- On the search bar, type “Settings” then locate and click on “Accounts”. Step 2- On the left navigation pane, locate and click on “Sign- In Options”, then click on “Password”. Step 3- Type your current password/new password and the hint that you want to provide under “Password Hint”.
