    Windows 10 password issue


    I had windows 7 professional on my custom build PC. When I turned the computer on, I had two accounts. Admin and my personal local account. Neither of them had a password.

    -I recently updated to windows 10 through the Windows update. The installation went through fine.
    I go to use my computer and now there is a password. I never entered a password for this installation. I also never entered a Microsoft account.

    -Now when I turn my computer on, I get the big circle with a head and shoulders stick figure guy, my name, and a password field.

    -The problem is..., I do not have, and never did have, a password.

    -The system also asks for a password to revert back to the original build, so I cant even go back to windows 7.


    microsoft just says im screwed

  2. Windows 10: Issues with deleting a particular system file and Administrator Problems.

    Original Title: Administrator Problems

    The issue is quite simple. Ever since migrating to Windows 10, I've been unable to administrate, though I'm supposedly an administrator with "full control." A current example: I've picked up a trojan file in a c:\windows subdirectory. having full control
    of the c:\ directory, I should be able to simply delete the bad file. However, I can't do that because I get the following message:

    "You require permission from the computer's administrator to make changes to this file." I've tried all the suggestions here and none of them work. This has been an ongoing issue with this OS since I installed it a year ago. Until now, I haven't needed
    to "administrate" over this directory, and thought that Microsoft would eventually get around to fixing the problem, especially since there have been so many complaints about it. Apparently, Microsoft can't handle it. BTW, Windows 10 sucks. It's apparently
    not built for end users who want to accomplish real work on the computers THEY OWN. Instead it's built for vendors who want to know who you are, where you are and what you're doing, so that they can tailor advertising to you.

  3. Won't read SD CARD windows 10

    Below is the result of following your Step 1. So my issue of Windows 10 not reading the SD is still not resolved. How come the required driver to allow Windows 10 to read the SD in my computer was not installed during the fix?

    "There is a problem with the driver for USB-IF xHCI USB Host Controller. The driver needs to be reinstalled."

    I cant sign into windows at all. If I leave the field blank, it says its incorrect. If I enter any password, its incorrect.

    Just to verify, does your account show an email address under it? If so, it's a Microsoft account.

    If it is a local account instead, then you may need to reinstall Windows. *Sad
