Windows 10: Message to fix account problem

I have been trying to ignore this problem for a very long time now - probably years. I get a message, daily, that there is an account problem and I need to fix it. I eventually cave in and try to fix it. I am told to change my password, which I do. I get a confirmation email to my other email account. I then need to sign in to Microsoft again, but when I do my new sign on is not acknowledged. I try again; same thing. I can't log in. I can repeat the whole process and change my password again but the same thing happens. If I wait until the next day, my old password works, but I cannot change my password again to use the one I changed to. At that point I just carry on as before and get a daily message. Or, as happened today, I change my password, but am told something is wrong and to fix it on my browser. I follow the prompts but go nowhere. If I knew how to correct this I would do so. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Remove account

I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
To delete an account, follow these steps:

1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

 

Account problem

Aslam,

Yes, the procedure is complex but I split it into individual steps that, I believe, can be followed by anybody.

Booting into Safe mode is explained in section 3. All steps are included. If there is a step you cannot do then please tell me the para number and which aspect of it is confusing you.

Getting into the built-in Administrator account is explained in section 4. All steps are included. If there is a step you cannot do then please tell me the para number and which aspect of it is confusing you.

Any local account and any MSAccount can be made a "Standard" account or an Admin account. You need to be logged in to an Admin account in order to raise a Standard account to Admin status.
- Once you are logged in to one of the Admin accounts that I suggest that you create, you can go to Settings, Accounts, Family & other users so that you can select the account you want to raise then click on the Change account type button that appears.
- Be wary of promoting then relying upon the current problem account because its user profile might be damaged. I cannot say that it is definitely damaged but only that something has gone wrong.

77000 Steam accounts hacked every month

Ironically I've had the same crappy password since I made my Steam when HL2 came out and never been hacked, but I've had my Origin account jacked twice with a much more complicated password. 2 step on Origin fixed this problem, but just thought it was kind of funny. I went with 2 step on Steam to be safe too.
