    Windows doesnt allow me to sign in with personal account.


    I recently changed keyboard to a Ten key less, So I no longer have the NUM pad. So I need to change my pin because I used my NUMpad before. But when I try to sign in and change it, It just tells me to sign in with work or organization account. How can I fix this?

    :)

    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
