    Lockscreen password

    I am unable to open my desktop from the lockscreen. It states to go to account.live.com to fix the issue, however I am unable to get to that screen without the password for the lockscreen. Am I missing something here?

    Lockscreen without password


    Correct. I switched to a local account with no password.

    The only other thing I can suggest is, create a photo screensaver with your desired image, then turn off screensaver settings. Then, navigate to "C:\Windows\System32\PhotoScreensaver.scr" and create a shortcut to the 'PhotoScreensaver.scr' file and pin it to your taskbar or quick launch and click it to engage:

    EDIT: Mind you, it won't be the Lock Screen with the date and time on it though! *Wink

    Lockscreen password

    The screen is locked and I am unable to access anything except the lockscreen. I am writing this from a different computer. Any suggestions?
