Computer does not accept one of my passwords

It is a strange, as far as I know.

In a Word, my computer won't let me in my user, any password that I use, that I used for my local user for several years to my Microsoft account.

I'll give you as many background I can.

I got to my computer (I'm sorry, but I don't have the name of the model in my head and I use a public computer to write this) about two years ago, not long before the release of Windows 10. When I booted it around the top of the first time I have urged to create a profile, then a Microsoft account, but there was something odd about the procedure. I don't remember the details of it, but there was something about the configuration of email that kept me or had me to refrain from linking to Microsoft, and I opted for a local user and used my webmail to read emails, and that was all. I suspect there is something that came back to haunt me, but I don't think that's what caused the problem.

Sunday night, I bought and downloaded a digital comic, which has been protected as a .acsm file. Having never had to deal with the type of file, before I left to find something that could read from Microsoft Store. I started with OverDrive, and when it does not work I tried MyeBooks, which required my password of Microsoft. I couldn't remember the password in time, then at a loss for a lot of other things, I used my computer password, that has worked. I still couldn't read the comic, because MyeBooks claimed he had already been used, but I was too frustrated at this point to deal with most of the night and decided to do something else before going to bed. I tend to have sleep disorders without some sort of atmosphere to clear my head, so what I do is I open a YouTube video, to find a video long enough, start it and let the mind-numbing conversations and dancing lights asleep asleep (not to start a discussion on what is and isn't good for a computer because it strains the Circuits I say just because it might be relevant). After a while, the computer goes to sleep as well, and I can just wake him up again with a simple mouse movement in the morning. However, when I woke up and tried to do this, for some reason the start screen was a new Windows theme, and under my user name my email address was posted, and when I tried to enter the password he refused to unblock, or ask the password was wrong and that I should try logging into my account from Microsoft to solve the problem , or I should try 'the last password used on this device.

That's what I tried

I tried all the passwords that I used to unlock the computer before. After that, I tried several combinations of these, just in case where I had a little confusing due to lack of sleep, and then all the other passwords, I knew it couldn't be. After that, I went online on a computer at school to see my account of Microsoft and after a long attempt to remember my password that I managed to get, only to find nothing out of the ordinary, no message, no prompt, nothing. As I got today my Microsoft password I got home and tried to use it on my computer, no effect. I tried to reset my password. When this does not work I tried to change my password, and as an extra pourrait-being-useful I downloaded Microsoft Security app on my phone. And this doesn't work anymore.

I paint a blank on what to do next, without forgetting what happened, and I would appreciate really any insight or solutions. I did not return to the top, because every time I've tried in the past, that the process hangs after some time without good reason, so if a solution does not wipe the hard drive or anything that translates by my lose that some files that I have on the computer I will be very happy. I carry most of my things on an external hard drive, but there are a few things on the computer, I want to keep.

Finally I managed to understand the problem was a combination of it suddenly requiring my password of Microsoft and my keyboard setup had changed and when I changed it back it kept resetting when I restarted the computer. Since then, I managed to understand how to connect again to my local account with my old password, and I once again can visit his profile.

This problem is solved.

    Hi gramward1,

    We recommend all first download and install the drivers for the chipset on the computer and check the difference.
    To download the driver, visit the website of the manufacturer of the system.

    Step 1: You can also try to search for the hardware changes and check if the device is detected on the computer. To do this, try the following steps:
    a. connect any USB device to the computer.
    b. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc, and then click ok.
    c. in the list of items, click one of the items, click the Action menu and click scan for hardware changes.
    d. check if the device is detected.

    Step 2: Try to remove and reinstall all USB controllers
    a. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc in the Open box and then click OK.
    b. in the list of components, expand Bus USB controllers.
    c. right-click on each device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click on uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    d. restart the computer once you have removed all the USB controllers.
    Note: USB controllers automatically install after you restart the computer.
    e. plug the removable USB storage device and perform a test to ensure that the problem is solved.

  • Computer does not accept the dates of restoration?

    The almost immediate and repetitive Google chrome crashing drove me to the restore point.  Then, during the last part of the "System Restore" process, computer says that he cannot accept a given restore date.  Afterwards, I checked every available date and it would not accept any of them.

    It's normal when you have a number any conflicting security programs installed. For more information, read:

    http://bertk.MVPs.org/html/srfail.html

    BTW, System Restore should be used in some situations. I'm not sure that Google Chrome crashing would be one of them. If this is your only problem, uninstall and then reinstall Google Chrome are probably your best choice.

    Other browsers work correctly? Other alternatives to IE8 include Firefox and Opera.

  • activation of mini 4 iPad does not accept the apple id password

    The ideas people? ipad mini 4 has an activation screen, which, for some reason usually recognize the correct user name and password for the apple ID. We have tried a reboot and tried to change the password, but I can't get to the activation screen. I tried to connect it to itunes, but it is said that the ipad needs a newer version have an i - but I installed the version more up-to-date.

    Last part of your problem first... you need a newer version of iTunes that you run on your computer. You have the latest versions for the operating system that you run on your computer, but you must use iTunes 12.3 now to synchronize, backup, restore an iOS9 running iOS device.

    Why not activate the device and then resolve the problem Apple ID. I activated iOS devices at least a dozen times and every time I activated, there was the possibility to connect to ID once the unit has increased and running.bhave you tried to skip this step?
