  1. log-in annoyance


    After the Creators Update,the password is deemed to be "incorrect".Following a restart,the same password is accepted and all is normal.
    I have tried ----dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth and sfc /scannow and both returned clear report.Next thing was Credential manager,right clicked and restart.
    No change.
    All I can think of now is either put up with the annoyance or the dreaded Clean install.
    If anyone has a suitable fix for this,it would be gratefully received.
    The prospect of doing yet another clean install is off putting.

  2. Unable to change keyboard layout for second user account in Windows 10

    Sometime in October, the US Dvorak keyboard started working. I have found that sometimes it defaults back to US Qwerty when I log in, but that's just an annoyance.

  3. Windows 10 sticking on startup

    when I switch on my computer it will often stick on the startup picture screen and I cannot log on so I have hold down the on button on the computer I may have to do this a few times before it decides to go through to log in this is an annoyance more
    than a disaster has anybody a solution to this?

  5. Thanks dencal,but that doesn't fix the problem of why a restart is the only way the password is accepted.It is only the initial log-in which rejects it.If I cancel the log-in requirement through User account,needless to say there is no problem,which is the same as removing the front door because a lock doesn't work,everyone has access.
    I've only had the Creators Up-date for a few days,so some fix might appear-----ever hopeful.

  6. The cause was the CU resetting Fast Startup to operate.Not long after the installation of Win10,I had unchecked Fast Startup and very infrequently had a look to see if it had changed.It is now unchecked once again and so far all is normal
