Windows 10: Password not accepted after KB4579311 update installed

Hi


RE: Password not accepted after KB4579311 update


Computer HP

ED: Win 10 Home

Ver: 2004 x64

Installed: 19.06.20.

OS Build: 19041.450

Password not accepted after KB4579311 update, having tried the following basics six times:-

Double checked correct PW

Entered PW with Virtual screen keyboard

Check Virtual keyboard was UK setting

Changing PW in safe internet mode

PW reset using USB

All my above attempts failed while using KB4579311 update.

Returned system to previous operating system prior to KB4579311 update computer accepts my PW and works all OK. Have paused win 10 updates for one month as it appears KB4579311 update is causing the issue.


Having read previous MRDBeta work around reply post.

KB4579311 is sitting in my Local Disk, Windows, SoftwareDistribution, Download folder. Is it worth me deleting KB4579311 and try to install the patches or through Windows 10 updates again?

OR


Wait for a confirmed work around or update from MS as I need my computer for work and I'm not a computer expert?

Regards

Sam

Windows update issues (kB4579311)(KB4578968)

I have to reinstall windows multiple times until I was able to narrow it down to one of these windows updates (kB4579311) (KB4578968). Once I installed these updates my mouse will no longer highlight words or able to click on drop down menus. Sometimes
it will not let me click on anything. Is there a solution for this?

 

Starting in Safe Mode - Password is not accepted

My suggestion only.

If you have time, please do a Repair Install.
Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade

 

Long boot time and passwords missing

The only reason I mention the account is that a Windows update recently was causing people to be signed into a temporary account, your password manager may be installed for all users but the list of passwords would be user specific, therefore the blank password list suggests a different account. *Smile
