  1. Is there a way to get rid of the black-dotted boxes around things I click?


    Hello,


    Is there a setting that allows me to get rid of the black-dotted boxes around things I click? They remind me of the old Windows operating systems that I grew up around and I feel like it takes away from some of the modern aspects of Windows 10. If you don't understand what I'm talking about, I've attached 2 images to show you what I mean.

  2. Black Dot and Numbers filled up in the password box and the Notepad

    Hello,

    There are several ways to troubleshoot sign-in issues in Windows 10. Since the system automatically fills out the password box with black dots and already did a few troubleshooting steps, we suggest creating a new user account to see if this issue will occur
    on a new user profile. This will help you check if your current user account is corrupted. To do this, simply follow the steps below:


    • Select the Start button, then select Settings > Accounts > Family
      & other people
      > Add someone else to this PC.

    • Type a user name, password, password hint, and then select Next.

    Should you have further questions, please let us know.
