  2. Unable to sign in to the computer after the password reset

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you had reset password for Windows 10 and now you are unable to enter the password as it’s in safe

    mode.

    This issue may arise when the new password did not sync to the device which requires active internet connection.

    I suggest you to restart the computer and start the system normal mode and check if you are able to sign in to the computer with the new password. If you are not able to sign in, I suggest you to check whether you are able to login to
    http://accounts.live.com with the new password.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

  3. password sign in

    Hi,

    About your concern with typing the password after being idle, it is actually recommended to activate for security reasons.

    If you wish to disable it, I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    • Go to Settings.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Click on Sign in options.
    • On the right side, you will see required sign in.
    • Change it to Never.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Unable to sign into Windows

    Hi Peter,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    1. What is the error you get while trying to sign in?
    2. When you say ‘0000’, are you referring to a PIN?
    3. Is it a local or Microsoft account, you use with Windows sign in?
    4. Do you see any other sign in options like password, fingerprint or facial recognition?
    5. Do you see any options on screen to reset your password?


    If you are using the Microsoft account with Windows sign in, choose password option under sign in options and type in the Microsoft account password and let us know if it works.



    Please get back to us with the information requested, so that we can suggest the appropriate troubleshooting steps.



    Regards,

    Peer Samie
