    Locked out because of repeated sign in attempts despite never failing to sign in.


    I’m locked out of my computer for two hours because of this even though I never failed. Repeated shutdowns could be an option, if so I would like to find a way to bypass that since that’s an absurd reason to lock me out for two hours. Regardless, I need to get around this lockout.

  2. Windows 10 desktop keeps locking. Says "this sign-in option is disabled because of failed sign-in attempts or repeated shutdowns."

    I would like to disable the feature that locks the computer due to "failed sign-in attempts or repeated shutdowns." Twice it's happened, and it's a major pain. I realize that it's a security feature, but I feel that given my home situation - very secure
    - I am willing to take the risk.

    Thanks in advance.

    "This sign-in option is disabled because of failed sign-in attempts or repeated shutdowns". What is the reason for this ?

    Hello Sir/Madam.

    I just used it 5 hours ago at school and then I came home and opened it up it showed like this : "This sign-in option is disabled because of failed sign-in attempts or repeated shutdowns. Use a different sign-in option, or keep your device powered on for at least 2 hours and then try again". What is the reason for this one ?
    And may I ask how can I adjust the time from 2 hours to less.
