  1. My pc went from loading a game to the login screen and is asking my Microsoft account password.


    I was loading a game and, out of nowhere, it went to the Windows login screen. The pc hasn't restarted and it wasn't turned off, and my confugured PIN doesn't work. I don't know why it happened and think this is pretty strange.

    I'm asking here because when I googled it it only showed answers to Office asking the Outlook password, which, to be clear, is not the problem I'm having. I can't access my computer.

    Thank you in advance.

    login screens

    goto CONTROL PANEL/ USER ACCOUNTS then you have to remove all the other accounts except for the one you logon with....then restart...it should bypass the login tho it will still show the screen for it...it will continue to load windows...good luck*Rockout :rockout:



    edit:: it asks for a login when there are more then one accounts..or if you set a pw to your login name...

    Microsoft login asking for Windows password

    My pc has two passwords.

    One is for Mike, a local account, at the lock screen to reach the desktop.

    The Store has my Microsoft email with the email password to login & asks if it should use the same login/password for all the microsoft apps.
