Windows 10: Start up Password problem

The start up screen password block is already full of characters that I can't delete. I'm asked to change my password but am then given an alternative email address which I don't even know. If I eventually click on a symbol away from the password block I get the proper start up screen and can get in no problem. It's very weird.


A few weeks ago the new login options came up and I made a PIN but the same happened with that. The start up screen already had a PIN number in which I couldn't delete etc etc. Once I did get into the laptop, I took away the PIN option.


Can anyone help please?

:)

MW2 Problem

I think the game is booting, then Steam is trying to boot, but is hanging during the login process, hell it may be sitting there wait for you to enter your password.

Try this, turn Steam On and log in. Click on the game listed in the "My Games" tab to start MW2 and see if the problem continues. If that does not work, you have 2 other suggestions above.
