Windows 10: The password you entered for your device is incorrect. Please try again.

What to do with this? I know I have the correct password but it keeps on saying that it is not...This is really frustrating.

The password you entered for your device is incorrect

My hard drive failed and had to get a new one with a fresh install of Windows 10. When I try logging into my Microsoft account it has me enter the user ID then password then asks for my current password again... Every time it gives me the error "The password
you entered for your device is incorrect. Please try again."



I tried via the web and I'm entering the correct id/password, but I can't get into windows 10.

I Googled and the only thing I found was from four years ago if upgrading from Windows 8...which suggested a fresh install. I can't reinstall as I have no disks. I checked and windows is updated to the most current patches.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Password incorrect

How do I get out of safe mode so I can reset my settings?

1. Press Windows + R keys to open Run command.
2. Type msconfig and press Enter.
3. In the window, click on Boot tab.
4. uncheck Safe boot, click on Apply and Ok. Restart

Not sure why it started in Safe mode. May have been out of sync with your phone from prev incorrect password. See if restart fixes. At least, you know what your universal MS password is. *Wink
