  1. startup repair 'incorrect password', but it isn't


    hi.

    I bought my PC with Windows 10 installed, so no USB drive or disc.

    My pc keeps crashing, sometimes during startup reboots itself but mostly during use.

    I want to run startup repair, but it continuously doesn't accept my password, even though I've changed it via another route, signed back in on my account via different devices including Onedrive, and it still says password incorrect.. I tried my PIN code just in case, but no joy.


    How do i run startup repair on my pc if the password acceptance is corrupted?


    thanks

    Pram

    :)

  3. Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

    Startup repair incorrect password

    I hadnt used my laptop for a couple weeks. When i started it today my normal 4 digit passcode did not work and then said to contact an administrator. When I restarted it got stuck at “just a moment” so i restarted 3 times until i got recovery options. I
    tried system restore and startup repair BUT the problem is it keeps saying I am entering the wrong password. So i signed into my microsoft account on a different device and got in fine but my laptop keeps saying incorrect password. The last time i used the
    laptop it performed updates and shut down. What do I do?
