  1. Keep creating new password


    for a bit over a year, my computer has kept asking me to make a new password for my profile about once every week. I have to log in with my Microsoft password after which i have to enter my Microsoft password again, and create a new password for the computer. I don't understand why it is happening. It doesn't happen on my laptop either.

    Is there any way to stop the computer from asking me to redo my password?

    :)

  2. How can I create a new app password

    To create a new app password,
    this page
    says:
    • Go to the
      Security basics
      page and sign in to your Microsoft account.
    • Select More security options.
    • Under App passwords, select Create a new app password. A new app password is generated and appears on your screen.
    But I have found no 'App passwords' option/button in that page. Please help — how can I do this?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused. I will assist you with this.

        Security & privacy.
      • Select Change password.
      • Enter your current password, then the new password that you want to use, then enter the new password again.
      • Select Save.


    Try the following steps to create a password reset disk for a local user account.

    • Login to your computer using the local account you want to create a password reset disk for.
    • Insert a USB drive or SD card into the computer.
    • Type Create a password reset disk and select it
    • Click Next.
    • Select the location to create the password key disk and click Next.
    • Enter your account password and click Next.
