    Windows 10 still accepting my old password at logon

    Windows logon always accepted old password in my case. But once I tried logon with the new microsoft account password, it stopped accepting old password.

    This thing might be helpful.

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

    Windows 10 still accepting my old password at logon

    I know this is Necroing an old thread but the issue still exists.

    My installation of Windows 10 accepts two different passwords. My current password, and the one prior to it log me in to my Windows 10 PC. The password was updated sometime towards the end of last year.

    Seriously, we live in an age where data security is at the forefront of peoples minds...
