    After Windows 10 update, signin screen won`t accept my pssword.

    Sign-in screen won`t take my password after Windows 10 update on a new HP laptop. I had setup a pin login but now asks for Microsoft password which I wrote down and have used before but will not accept now.

    Locked out of ASUS laptop; will not accept my local password

    After installing new BIOS Flash Update on my ASUS laptop, using the ASUS Automatic Updater, my local password is no longer accepted. Getting error message "Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Choose another sign in option and set up your PIN
    again..." I click on sign in options, click on the key symbol and enter the local password I have always used on this laptop. Then I get the message "The password is incorrect. Try again"

    I don;t remember ever setting up a PIN for this laptop, and I do not have a password reset disc or flash drive, and cannot locate the administrator password. Am I totally out of luck?

    I upgraded to Windows 10 on this computer when Microsoft was asking people to do so; it did not come with Windows 10, as I recall.

    My laptop won't accept my password and indicated it needs a flash drive to boot up?

    My Asus laptop didn`t accept the password, Microsoft asked to change it

    Today my Asus laptop didn`t accept the usual password I have been using for years. A note asked me to reset Microsoft password and after that, using this new password, I was able to start my computer.

    Anybody knows why did this happen? Since when Microsoft is controlling my personal computer in such a way that I can`t even open if they don`t want to?

    thanks
