    Hello. I am soooo frustrated. My regular passwords to access sites have all been giving me 'password error' messages. Today, alone, I had to change my gmail password twice because it defaults to 'error'. What is going on?

    my password stopped working


    Hello Fishbait, and welcome to Ten Forums. Passwords have stopped working! :)

    OPTION THREE in the tutorial below can help show you step by step on how to reset your Microsoft account password online. Be sure to leave the PC that has this issue connected to the internet and running for it to eventually sync with the new password.

    my password stopped working


    All that did was allow me to reset my password with microsoft.com.

    What about the machine I can't get into?
