login screen Microsoft account does not accept my password reset

After trying several times the cccount login page microsoft won't reset my password.  I called microsoft and they say reset my password again.  I have done this and chosen a new password, but it still does not recognize my new password.  Help!

You have enabled authentication step 2?
I suspect what happens is that you use always the global account password and not the built application password.  You will always get mail until you connect the device (which is a good idea in any case) and then you'll need generate a password (on the pc in outlook.com) and 'trust' of the mobile device. After what he should not do that.

You must open a session and go here https://account.live.com/securityprivacy/overview to do.

Alternatively, you can install the outlook application, so whenever you need an "access code", you can approve it directly on the mobile device.

  • My administrator account does not accept my password.

    Once I turn on my computer, I have two accounts, one for me and my young son (Administrator account) it won't take my password.

    You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, you can use one of the following methods instead. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

    All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    Method 1 - if you have a Vista DVD installation (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes
    NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234. If you do not have a Vista installation DVD, you can either make a bootable DVD of Vista repair in the file at this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Method 2 - or you can use NTpassword to change the password of your user account to a blank. In both cases, you need third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the .iso image image file, not in the form of data.

    http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/

    3. sign in to your administrative user (not the built-in administrator) account which will be the subject of any password or something simple like "1234".

    If you used method 1, after that connect you to your administrative user account, you must disable the administrator built-in yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  • Windows Vista does not accept my password (unchanged) but I have no recovery disk - Windows is already installed

    Hello

    As the title says after using my laptop without any previous problems, suddenly I can not connect on Windows Vista.

    I'm 100% sure that the password has not been changed, caps lock, shift, caps lock Num etc is not active.

    When I bought the laptop, Vista was already installed, so I don't have a recovery disk.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Microsoft prohibits any help given in these Forums for you help bypass or "crack" passwords lost or forgotten.

    This is the Information from Microsoft on the problems of passwords;

    You will need to borrow a Microsoft DVD from a friend, Recovery DVD a manufacturer without these special work options available.

    If you are unable to connect to Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you can use the Windows Vista System Restore feature, or the Windows 7 system restore feature.

    You may be unable to connect to Windows Vista or Windows 7 in the following scenarios:

    • Scenario 1: You recently set a new password for the protected administrator account. However, you don't remember the password.
    • Scenario 2: You type the correct password. However, Windows Vista or Windows 7 does not accept the password because the system is damaged.
    • Scenario 3: You delete a protected administrator account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.
    • Scenario 4: You change an administrator account protected with a standard user account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.

    Malware can also cause problems with passwords:

    And here's how to go in Safe Mode options; Select safe mode with networking from the list of options:

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    If the above does not fix it:

    Here are the different methods to reinstall Vista.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    Vista does not accept the password (we have not forgotten password of windows startup) how can we get around this problem .the password has not been changed or forgotten Vista has a little programming problem which stops the right password

    It is most often caused by the computer being infected, so after you go back into the system, it would be wise to make an analysis.

    You can change your password to something you remember (or use a white) another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

    Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

    Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  • Password Manager does not accept my password to win

    Hi, I reinstalled my system Win XP (reinstalled - restore factory restore point) and using the same password for my account in XP I used before. But password manager does not accept my password more.

    When I connect to my profile, and asked me my password in the pass Manager it sayes the authentificaiton failed. It's different when I type a password for the wrogn win... It is said immediately that he didn't, but when I type the correct password to my login to Win that he continues to deal with for a while, but then he said that he could not.

    When I login as an administrator and try it... everything is OK. but in my profile is not...

    following... when I close it cancel goes away - but when I try to double click PM icon - and I wonder password... and I type my login password right it is not that he failed, but only he disappeare and noething happened... When I try to open the MP of the plateau - the same...

    in some cases, it is said that windows password has been changed and wonder the new pass - but it's always the same, I used before so I'm sure that I don't forget and I write you the wrogn-car - I woudn't power connect victory also...

    I tried to change my password to win and by using the copy - paste I old tape pass, new, still nine and also in the PasswordManager but still does not...

    I tried to uninstall and reinstall the password manager, but he seems to have a few status registers...

    Can someone help me solve this problem? I really enjoy using this password manager...

    I found here that "password issues" aren't disccussed here... If not... where are? doI have to call somewhere and still a lot of money on the phone bill? I'd like to solve this problem online here or by mail...

    Hi Steve,

    Please excuse my late reply, but I am currently very busy and not at home.

    Yes, 'shutdown' meant turn off .

    The need to restore the keys seems to me as if all of the key information have been removed. Maybe there is some key information that remains after the uninstall process, and these are retrieved later during the new installation. During my process any key information have been recovered so far here.

    Are you sure, be connected as "LENOVO - BC8C81F0\Administrator. The name of the computer looks as if it was a random name. If your computer now has a different name. Maybe you have to change the name of the computer.

    I also feel that CSS is not very accurate in finding the right user and user profile folder.

    Sorry, if uninstalling and cleaning of different locations does not help you. If the problem is related to different account of your administrator account ID, I can't help you. It is a problem well beyond my capabilities of Windows.

    Good luck!
