  1. Microsoft Account.


    I recently built a new computer, and after installing windows 10, I cannot sign into my Microsoft account. I get a prompt asking for my current password one more time and then get a message saying, “The password you entered on this device is incorrect.” I’ve tried resetting my password and still nothing. I’m able to log in on Microsoft’s website, but not into my account in windows. Some other information, I used the product key from my old prebuilt computer that came with windows, if that has anything to do with it.

  3. Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region


    I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
    We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.

    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.
    Step 2:
    I suggest you to create a new user account and check if the issue occurs.

    2. Choose Accounts and then select Family and other users.
    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
