Windows 10 password incorrect

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I will be glad to help you with the issue you are having with the computer. I understand the frustration when things don't work the way it should.

• 
  Are you using Microsoft or local account?
  

I would suggest you to press the eye icon on the password text box and check whether you have entered the correct password.

I would suggest you to use On-screen keyboard and try logging into your local account and check if it helps. Follow these steps.

1. On login screen click Ease of access button on bottom left corner of the screen.

2. Click on On-Screen keyboard (OSK).

3. Try entering the password using OSK and check.

Hope this information helps you. Kindly post back with the updated issue for further assistance.



Thank you.

 

Password Incorrect and Local Password Incorrect

My PC which is currently running on Windows 10 was being used till 13:25(GMT) on 04/09/16 . Then suddenly I was locked out and even after changing my Microsoft account password there is no progress. It says 'That Password is incorrect'. Please let me
know why my Local PIN code was changed all of a sudden. There are no issues with the Internet connection. Even after changing the password it shows that the password is incorrect. I'm able to Sign-in into my account on my other devices but not in my PC. Please

This issue might occur if there is Internet connectivity issue.



To assist you better, please provided us the information below:

• When you say that "my password in it says it's incorrect", are you trying to login as Microsoft Account or Local Account on the computer?
