  1. Unable to change Windows login password.


    I am unable to change my current password for administrator account on Windows 10 home ver.


    1. I click the start menu button,


    2. I click the settings icon button,


    3. In the Windows settings window I click the accounts not actually an icon,


    4. I cannot find where my local user administrator account is to change its password. It tries to get me to sign in with a Microsoft account, but I don't want to use my Microsoft account for authenticating my computer login.

    :)

  2. Password issue

    After going through the steps to make a new password, after a week or two, my login credentials are no longer valid. I'm forced to make a new password all over again. It seems to happen if I don't login in a certain period of time. Does our passwords expire???

    Unable to change Windows login password.

    Windows 10 login password problems

    I have been unable to login in to my user account using my password. Although I'm able to login when using Safe Mode.

    When I display a list of users in lusrmgr I'm displayed as my name, but when I display User Accounts my username is displayed as my email address and I'm unable to change my password. I have tried using a password manager software to reset my password, although
    the program indicates it's been changed to a blank one, on a reboot I'm still unable to login in.
