    MS Account Login Problem


    So I recently changed the alias for my MS account, was also able to figure out how to change the email address when logged into Windows. I had problems starting windows today, so I did a startup repair. When I got to the login screen it is now using my old MS account email. Of course I'm screaming at MS in a room by myself. All I'm trying to do is maybe change the email back without having to reinstall windows.

    :)

    How do I DELETE the PHOTS APP and Edge?

    Thanks for your reply but I've already tried SafeMode - no luck.

    I've also looked into other forums and found that the issue is related to using the "MS Login" versus a "Local Login."

    I have, and want to use a Local account.

    Others, using the MS Login/account report that they don't have a problem with the MS Apps changing the default programs.

    Users, using a Local Account/Login, appear to be the ones with the issue. Microsoft needs to fix this ASAP. What a lousy way to treat their customers. It it is intentional, shame on MS, if it's a bug, then FIX it!

  3. Login to Windows then No Response

    Hi,

    I am still getting this problem, basically I login to Windows (with my MS Account) and it looks as if everything loads, however nothing responds, the cursor is a constant circle.

    I have to power my PC down, switch it back on an I login with a local account which works fine, then I sign out and login with my Windows MS account (which previously failed) and it works with no issues.

    Have you tried logging in with the new email?

    I was able to sign in with the new email just fine. That is before the startup repair happened. I'm stuck at the login screen looking at my old email.

    Edit: Your silence is telling me I have no choice but to reinstall.

    I really don't understand what you mean by "stuck looking at your old email", just enter the new email to log in...

    What part about 'stuck at the login screen don't you get here? Unless its called something else besides the login screen, I don't know how clearer I need to be. You cannot change your email on the login screen.

    Edit: I'm talking about the login screen you see when you first start up windows. Sorry if it seems I'm taking out my frustrations here.

    MS Account Login Problem

    I ended up reinstalling windows 10. That fixed it without help. However, what I was trying to do was to fix this problem without reinstalling windows. Its just stupid to have to for such a small issue.
