    I suddenly had a password needed on my desk I’ve had for 8 years. I don’t want a password and I want this option removed. I had to get an IT guy to tell me to leave the top password section alone and make a 14-16 complex password on the bottom two entries. That worked but it asks me for this ridiculous password every time I log in.It has to go but you’ve blocked me from the “ask for password to never” section. FIX IT. I use my person desktop from home and it isn’t necessary.***moved from Microsoft 365 and Office / Other / For home / Other***

  3. Password issue

    After going through the steps to make a new password, after a week or two, my login credentials are no longer valid. I'm forced to make a new password all over again. It seems to happen if I don't login in a certain period of time. Does our passwords expire???
