Windows 10: Signing in

I recently bought a new pc and when setting it up made a typo which I did not immediately notice. Now when I try to correct this I’m told my email is not available - presumablybecause it’s in use by ME! How can I correct my sign in email address.

password sign in

Hi,

About your concern with typing the password after being idle, it is actually recommended to activate for security reasons.

If you wish to disable it, I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

• Go to Settings.
• Click on Accounts.
• Click on Sign in options.
• On the right side, you will see required sign in.
• Change it to Never.

Let us know how it goes.
