Being forced to enter a new logon password

Thank you all for your replies Checking online, there are numerous accounts of passwords expiring. I have not ever used a password on w10 on my Lenovo aio or other computers. Why on this machine. When trying to enter a new password the onscreen keyboard did not appear but it does so now. I cannot open the computer to take a screen shot as suggested. When i press the old signin button i then get the screen back with a message "your password has expired and must be changed" Is this MS trying to get even more control over us?

Getting into a muddle with MS password on 3 devices

*Banghead

• I wrote too soon, my password is being rejected in both my PC and phone again

Responses from MS include:

• "You can use any phone number to request the security code." Followed by " We cannot send a text message to this number." "To unlock your account, sign in to get a security code." I cannot sign inI! If you see error message when requesting a security code, this could mean the phone number has been used too many times in a short period of time, or that we've detected something suspicious about the phone number. Today this came after my first attempt The only "something suspicious" I can think of is the Catch 22 response from MS

- - - Updated - - - Next day. I am now stuck with asking for a CODE to be sent to my phone, which does not reveive it (phone is working OK). Trying again (after only one attempt) results *Sadin being told I have tried too many times and to try again tomorrow - - - Updated - - - "This alias cannot be added to your account. Choose a different alias". What should I do about this? What 'different alias"? I have have made a little progress amid a lot of errors, such as above. I have discovered Windows is using the wrong phone number, my landline, which does not handle text, instead of my smart phone. The a above is a response to my attempt to gain access to change the number. I have gained access to my activity, which lists signin failures and successes, but is not what I need. Can someone suggest how I might be able to get the phone number changed? I should have been able to get help via MS Community, but I need the password to get in. I have had a popup suggesting to download the phone app to help signin but in order to do this I need to enter a password which is accepted. Before all this kicked off I added a second email address to my account, hoping it would help if this situation occured --- it has not, so far, so I am wondering if it has added to the confusion instead. Fortunately my PIN is still accepted for signin to my PC but not much more --- when my password is rejected the PIN has not been one of the alternatives offered.
