    Heads Up: Win 10 not recognizing 3rd party software registrations and interfering with passwords

    I've got a number of 3rd party software apps that I can no longer use because the previous Win 7 registration or activations are no longer recognized after my Win 10 OS update. I can probably get this fixed next week from the software suppliers themselves,
    even though it is a pain to have to contact and convince each individual developer that this is not a a new installation to a new PC or other device. I see that a number of other Win 10 updates have caused similar problems for other users.

    A bigger problem for me is that Win 10 is interfering with some of my existing software to recognize my security passwords established with Win 7. When I enter the correct existing password, the software now yields a warning that I have entered an incorrect
    password. Unfortunately it also fails to offer offer me the option to click on a "Forget Your Password" link or to reset a password.

    This failure to recognize my accurate passwords did not only affect 3rd party software, but also my PC User Account passwords. It took some professional help help to overcome the User Account password interference, but the 3rd party passwords are still an
    as-yet-unresolved set of problems. Any suggestions on how to get Win 10 out of the way here?

    3rd party software developers may have not yet created a Win 10 compatible version of their app, so beware if you depend on the frequent use of such password-protected software and plan to upgrade to Win 10. On the other hand, I have no clue why Win 10 would
    not accept my previous Win 7 User Account passwords.

    Then enable the built-in Administrator Account:

    Restart the computer, log into the Built-In Administrator Account and reset your other user account's password:

    Then disable the built-in administrator account. You want to save it only for situations just like this.
