  1. why all of a sudden I have to sign into Microsoft three to four times a day


    I've had my computer an never had to sign in to Microsoft at all, now if I put it on sleep mode it turns it back on negating sleep waiting for me to sign into Microsoft . Can you please make it stop without making like it is my fault an here is about 2000 hoops for you to jump through before we can fix it . Never had to sign into Microsoft no less three or more times per day or put my computer in sleep mode only to find SIGN INTO MICROSOFT burning my electricity .

    Your Microsoft account needs you to sign in again-recent credentials

    Yes the correct or current info is in the Settings/Accounts/Your email and accounts.
    The steps in the tutorial included signing in after deleting a listing. I couldn't see where that was relevant since its a second listing. It looks like I have to voluntarily do the 'sign in' so I can avoid doing that. I'm locked out for 30 days anyway.
    Perhaps its time to set up a stand alone user account in that laptop <grin> Too nerve wracking dealing with this MSAccount.

I have tried as suggested here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2475837/en-us#step0x83cf1202 but as my Microsoft account is not shown, I cannot do step 6. why all of a sudden I have to sign into Microsoft three to four times a day :(

    sign into microsoft account glitch

    Hi Micheal,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    • Is this the only account on the computer?
    • Was this account upgraded from previous version of Windows?

    It looks like you are using a local account. I suggest you follow these steps:

    • Click on search in taskbar and type account.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Now, under Your account, click on Sign in with Microsoft account instead.
    • Enter your Local account password for confirmation and then follow the screen instruction.
    • Enter User name credentials for your the new Microsoft account and click OK.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards
