Windows 10: Log in to computer with hotmail account

Hi,I'm trying to log in to my HP Pavilion computer which is using my hotmail account for log in. *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. When I tried to log in with correct password it says that the computer is offline. I think I tried to many times because now my account is blocked due too to many times trying logging in. The computer also says when I'm trying logging in that I need to use the last password that was used the last time. I have never changed my password to this computer or account. Please help me to lock up my account and computer. The email to send new password when resetting is not in use a

Thousands of Hotmail passwords have been hacked and posted online, according to reports.

I suggest that you change your password if you use any "Live" accounts.

I only respond to TPU msgs in my hotmail account so that wasn't the case. I honestly had to change the password before I could log into my account.

NEVERMIND: For some odd reason the field to change password every 72 days was checked.

 

Deleting hotmail accounts?

I think it'll just get put down as avaliable so another person can create an account with that name. At least I think that was how it used to work. I have a Hotmail account that I use about once a year (don't have any Live stuff connected to it either) or so and it has never been removed. But I think I could create a new account with the same name and it would be avaliable.

I think.

EDIT: No, I cannot create a new account with the same name. It was at least six months ago I used it last time.
