  1. Unexpected user named "WsiAccoount" Created After I click Forget Password While Sign In to...


    I'm having a strange issue with my Windows 11 laptop. It's not connected to the internet. When I tried to log in and clicked "Forget Password," a new user account called "WsiAccoount" was created unexpectedly. Now, it's asking for a password to access this new account.I haven't made any changes to my system settings. Does anyone know why this happened or how to resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is there any security threat ?Note : I enabled windows 11 insider program

    :)

  2. User Name

    Hi Bradford,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    As per the issue description you are willing to have your name instead of email address at login screen.
    If you are using Microsoft account for logging to the system then it will be hard to remove email address and show your name only. However, if you want then you may create new user profile as a local account with administrator permission. In this account
    you may keep the name you want.

    For creating new user profile you may refer to the steps provided below.


    • Press Windows key + R

    • Type control userpasswords2 and click OK

    • Click on add under users tab

    • Click the option, "Sign-in without a Microsoft account

    • Click on Local account

    • Choose a name for the account

    • Add password if you want to

    • Apply and click OK.

    For more information you may refer to the article mentioned below and see if it helps.

    Create a local user account in Windows 10

    If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

    Forget password

    He has to reset the password.

    "What to do if you forget your Windows 8/8.1 password"

    Change or reset your password - Microsoft Support

    If you've forgotten your Windows password, there are several ways to retrieve or reset it:

    • If your PC is on a domain, your system administrator must reset your password.
    • If you're using a Microsoft account, you can reset your password online. For more info, go to the

      Reset your password
      webpage.

    • If you're using a local account, use your password hint as a reminder.
    If you've tried these suggestions and still can't sign in:

    • If you have Windows 8.1, you'll need to reinstall Windows.
    • If you have Windows RT 8.1, you'll need to contact your PC manufacturer.
