  1. When Microsoft updates it messes up my passwords.


    Every time my laptop updates and cleans itself, when I try to go into a web site the wrong passwords comes up which means I have to change passwords again. I have too many sites I work with to remember all the passwords. How do I stop it from

    messing up my passwords especially when I don't know what it is doing?

    :)

  3. Can't sign in to windows with the same password by which I am able to sign in to my Microsoft account

    Hi Anurag,



    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with Windows 10. I will certainly help you.



    This issue might occur if there is change in Microsoft account settings.



    To assist you better, please provided us the information below:

    • When you say that "windows using the same password", are you getting any error message when you enter the password?
    • Have you checked the issue while entering with a different keyboard?
    • Were you connected the computer to a internet connection while logging into the computer with Microsoft account?
    • When you say that "resetting the password.", have you tried to reset the password from Microsoft website?

    I suggest you to follow the steps below to enter the password through different keyboard and through On-screen keyboard. Check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to try entering the password with a different password.

    Step 2: I recommend you to check the internet connect of the computer and make sure that internet is available for the computer while enter the Microsoft password.

    Step 3: I suggest you to follow the steps provided in the Microsoft account and check if it helps.
