  1. Unable to sign into Windows 11, cannot use pin, cannot activate Windows 11


    I have just completed a new build and installed Windows 11!However, Windows 11 has given me a lot of problems every step of the way.I'm trying to sign into my Microsoft account on Windows. I get to the part where it asks me for my Windows password after enterting my Microsoft password....however I used a PIN on Windows 10. I hadn't used a password in a year and a half. So, I am unable to sign into Windows using my Microsoft account. Because of this, I also cannot activate Windows 11. Is there a way around this? I seriously need assistance because this becoming a huge pain.

    :)

    Internet Explorer 11; Windows 10....Stopped Working

    IE11; Windows 10. For the past 2 weeks when I open IE11 I get Internet Explorer has Stopped working POPUP message rendering IE 11 unusable.

    I have followed suggested Fixes by "Resetting" IE11; Use Software Rendering...is NOT checked. I have tried to use "System Restore" and go back to a Restore Point prior to 2 weeks but, I get unable to restore to xx/xx/xxxx because the process cannot file iexplorer.exe.

    I have tried several Restore Points...get this same result.

    I cannot fine the Internet 11 Install Update to delete it as it is not in the list History\Installed Updates.

    Surely there must be away to fix IE 11...I have run out of things to do...suggestions with steps will be appreciated.
