Windows 10 check 'Remember password' cannot be controlled when you set up an e-mail account. Works on Windows 7

I had to set up a new e-mail account during the migration of Windows 10. For some reason, Thunderbird stop working so I had to start from scratch. In doing so, I uninstalled Thunderbird and reinstalled using TB 38.2.0. The box to remember my password could not be verified. I deleted the account and the new account e-mail selected to the box. It won't let me check it out.

I'm sorry, there is no simple way to switch from one profile to another.

First make a backup of C:\Users\*user name * \AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles. Create all the accounts in the new profile. Now close TB, go to profiles (see above path), then in the old profile. Now (and not move) copy the directories 'ImapMail', 'Mail' and 'News' in the new profile. It may be you have not all directories, according to accounts. Start TB with the new profile and check if everything is back you need.

Passwords are not copied, and you must enter now when is already done before.

    Maybe in relation to this thread

    If you have used a wrong e-mail address when you set the login account, you cannot directly change the address.

    Use instead the utility users from the Microsoft Account using a local account. This will be asked to sign out and sign back with the new local account credentials.

    Now do the same thing again, but go back to use a Microsoft Account. He will then enter the correct username account and password.

    If you cannot connect to your admin account, no tutorials can help you because they need you to connect to an administrator account to carry out the instructions.

    See if the following can get an admin account...

    Go to Safe Mode...

    Restart your computer > immediately and repeatedly pressing the F8 key until you see a black and white screen. The top/down arrow and select Mode safe mode with networking.

    Now, while in safe mode, you perform one of the following?

    1 can connect to your account admin without the error message?
    If so, do. Then do a system restore. Choose a date when you were free to login to your account admin as your restore point.

    If the system restore does not slove the problem, then use this tutorial

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947215

    2. If you are unable to log in to your account administrator in safe mode, you see another administrator next to your account?
    If so, you are lucky. This is the built-in Administrator account.
    There is, by default, no password.
    It could connect and do the system restore.

    If the system restore is not enough, then perform the tutorial even as above:

    If you can't do or of what precedes, I'm afraid you will have to re - install your Vista.

  • Cannot get signal when you connect the TV to HDMI port.

    * Original title: HDMI Signal

    Hello. My nam is Kieu. I have a problem and and we hope you guys can helo me. I just bought a Gateway desktop all-in-one computer and tried to connect it to the TV via the HDMI port, but I could not get signal on my TV. Help, please.
    Thank you very much

    Hi David,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum!

    According to the description of the problem, it seems that you are unable to get the signal when you connect the TV to HDMI port.

    I will certainly help you with this issue.

    Here are some steps that you can try in order to solve the problem.

    Step 1. First you need a video cable to make the physical connection. For a better image quality, you need to connect the computer to the TV using standard VGA ports or via DVI to HDMI Cable provided your TV supports these ports.

    Step 2. Open thedisplay settings' ' in your Vista computer and Activate the output to the TV screen. You can reflect the content of your computer on the TV or extend the display as a double screen control.

    Step 3 Pick up your TV remote and switch to "External inputs" in the menu. You need to change the value by default "Video 1" to a different selection which may be "HDMI 1" or "video 2" depending on how you made the connection. "

    Important: Make sure you connect the cable to the TV before turning on the computer, because sometimes it may not recognize the external display.

    You may also change the resolution of your TV screen using the display settings in your panel of control remains the image may appear distorted.

    For more information, see the article.
