  1. Username login


    When I first received my laptop, I linked my old microsoft account. Months ago, I deleted it because I saw no use in it, but replaced it with my school email instead. Recently, I tried installing an app from the store but I needed to create a new account because my school email wouldn't suffice. I went through a maze of trying to link it. And when I did, apparently it messed with the pin code on my username- it's an administrator account, and I don't know how to retrieve or create a new pin, since I don't have my old account anymore.

    :)

    Can't login to new computer w/Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.


    • Are you able to login to Microsoft Account on Web?

    • Have you installed any language pack?
    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to select the appropriate language in login screen at the bottom right corner and check if it helps.

    Steps 2: Use On-screen keyboard in the login screen to login and check if it helps.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.

    How to change list of clickable usernames on login screen?

    Hi,

    customer has Ad domain with a lot of Windows 10 pro workstations. Users are frequently changing at same workstation and it is kinda annoying that Windows 10 login screen displays only 2 usernames on bottom left corner:

    - <Last loged in user>

    - Other user

    Is it possible somehow to edit and set the list of usernames displayed there, to be, for example, list of 4 specific users?

    Username login

    Username Disappeared for login on Windows 10

    We have had Windows 10 installed for a few months now and we shut down our computer like normal for the night and the next day when we turned it out, one of our usernames (that is not an administrator) is not there. When you go the menu to switch usernames,
    it is not there either. If you go to Control Panel then User Accounts then Manage Accounts it is not listed there. If you go to "This PC" then "users", I can locate the username there with all my info still in tact like what is on the desktop, etc. for that
    username but how do I get it back on the login?

    Thanks!
