    windows 10 asks for a password but i never set one and i cant even type one


    yesterday i "linked" my only windows account with a hotmail account, to which windows wanted me to create a password for the windows account. i wrote one, it told me it was too simple so i tried to change it but during that process my pc rebooted. when i got back to my pc it was suddenly asking for a password that was never set and it wont even allow me to type one at all. The bootup screen has my account name and below a 'button' that says "log in" but when i click it nothing happens. there is no text box that i can use to type any password at all, only the log in button that does nothing whe
