  1. Why won't Windows recognise my password when trying system restore


    Hi, I need to open my computer in safe mode and do a system restore in Windows 10. However, when I am asked for my microsoft passsword, the computer refuses to accept it. I know the password is correct as I am able to access my Microsoft account to write here. I have tried changing the password to no avail.I am attempting a system restore as windows won't boot unless the pc is left off for several hours, even then it freezes and becomes completely unresponsive after about 1 minute.

    :)

  2. Windows XP PRO error after restore

    System restore is handy when it works like it did for me 2 days ago saving the need to reinstall all of my software as well as windows, id suggest using norton Ghost 12 for an excellent system restore feature.

  4. Why won't Windows recognise my password when trying system restore

    Windows 10 won´t start any program as Administrator

    Hello. I´m having this issue since installed one of the latest Windows 10 system updates.

    When I try to open any program that requires Administrator confirmation (that screen with the Yes/No question), this dialog won´t appear anymore. The screen background stays darkened and nothing happens.

    1. Using Windows 10 Home (x64)
    2. My microsoft user account is properly checked
    3. I´m the administrator of the PC
    4. Already tried do create another administrator user account - same problem, no success
    5. Cannot start any program/service that requires administrator authorization (not even regedit)
    Please help!
