BSOD :: Windows Login Does Not Recognize The Password
Feb 21, 2016
I recently loaded the free windows 10 upgrade. Our family was not happy with it at all because it would freeze all the time. Any time we tried to print anything out of any program it would freeze. We tried some of the repairs and they would work temporarily or not at all. I don't care to spend a bunch of time debugging it. So I decided to go back to Windows 7. I let it do everything last night to revert back and just tried to log in and it doesn't recognize the password . i know I'm entering it correctly. I don't have a password reset disk or USB drive and I need my computer back.

Ok so i am furious with Micro$oft now! the other day i was FORCED to change my microsoft account after much nagging i did so and i dont like changing logins too much. (this was a week ago)
now for some random reason on earth without my permission my windows login also changed login passwords to the microsoft account. I DONT WANT THAT! that password is too long and complicated for someone who locks his computer every 5 minutes or so. why did this just kick in now? i changed M$ account pass over a week ago and today it decides to change windows login?! can i change JUST my local windows login separate from microsoft login?
if i try to change pass from settings it it goes online and says you cant use password that has been used before.

I have followed several similar threads and their fixes for this problem with no result. After downloading the Win 10 upgrade, my system then said "loading updates". Then it restarted with a blue login screen saying "Welcome Back!" And a box to enter my password. The cursor is blinking in the box, but neither my mouse or keyboard works.
I have hard booted several times since the ctrl+alt+delete does not work. I am also not able to access safe mode as none of the "F" keys work during boot up.
I have tried the following:
1. Unplugged all USB devices except keyboard.
2. Turning off internet at the router.
I have a Dell desktop, and upgraded from Windows 7, with a Netgear router/modem. The only way I can get the system to move is if I power off at the main switch after booting up which goes into bios and disc diagnostics, but I don't know enough about computers to know what to do there!

Computer is in my house. Win 10 forced a login & forced me to create a password on it's 1st update. MY wife uses the computer also & she;s not very computer-savvy. I could require no password on Win 7, why did it do that without asking? How can I remove it.

After altering some of my account settings i now find my password is now not recognised. I know the password is correct. Unfortunately i didn't make a password recovery disc. There are no other options on the login screen i am completely locked out. Surely there must be some way of getting back in short of re-installing.

I'm having troubles disabling the password that is required at startup. With my previous laptop(also Windows 10) the 'netplwiz' trick worked, but now it does not (screenshot 1). Another strange thing is that I always have to choose between two user accounts while I only have 1 user account (screenshot 2). I suspect that one account is a Microsoft account en the other one a local account.

I am using a Lenovo Y510P, originally installed with Windows 8.1. I upgraded to Windows 10 in July and it worked fine-ish up until now. I have recently (for the past few days) encountered quite frequent BSODs, most of the time with the code CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED. I tried clean-resetting Windows 10 but the error kept recurring. It happened really randomly, sometimes when I was browsing the web in Chrome, sometimes when I was typing something in Skype, or in Microsoft Word, or sometimes when I just tried to refresh the desktop. So there's really no predicting when it is going to happen
P/s: After rebooting from BSOD, for some reason the system does not recognise any bootable device (and so it tries and fails to boot from my network?). But when I hard-reset the computer by holding the power button the system can boot into Windows again. I used to have grub2 bootloader for my Ubuntu, but after the first of such BSODs it died, somehow, so the system just booted straight into Windows from then on.

I wanted to log in with out a password. So I set the user account to go on with out a password. There is only one user account on this computer
When I rebooted the computer the message was that the name or password was wrong.
The screen showed two boxes in the lower left hand of the display. The lower had the name of John-0000 and the top box had the name of John.
When I click on the lower box it asks for a name and password
When I click on the top box it asks for a password.
I do not know how to change it back to the original.

How do I set it up to login automatically?

I renamed my PC and now a (new?) account looks like it's been made. Upon logging in I'm told the password is incorrect.But when clicking OK I get this screen and notice my PC is trying to log in to another account, which appears to be the same account but it's not as it requires a different password (which I have not set up) and I do not know it!
My usual log in is my Microsoft account, where I don't need to put in a password it will just sign me in no problems as shown in the image below, it is not ticked. I can't find this second account that has appeared out of no where. Therefore I cant delete it and stop it from automatically signing in!
Basically how do I remove this user so my Microsoft account is the default login, and will log me in without being prompted for a password?Update 16:11PMBelow is the image I found the user "Katie" under System properties (this is where I renamed my computer) but I have no option to delete it.

My father upgraded his Acer Aspire laptop to Windows 10 last week and now his login password is not working. I don't know if he had to put in a password to do the upgrade or if he miss-typed it. How to reset it or find the one he needs?

So I have Windows 10 and want to get rid of the password protected login feature. I found some steps on this site which are vaguely "On your windows 10 Start menu window, right click at the Win logo > select Run option > in the Run box type netplwiz > OK > follow the prompts. Restart Win 10."
Did that. On restart, I didn't need a password. Naturally, I thought the problem was solved. Nope. When the computer goes to sleep, I need to enter a password to re-open it; when it is turned off or restarted, I don't need a password.

I changed my log in password and now cannot login in to Windows 10. I'm positive that it is the correct password. Windows keeps telling me that the password is incorrect. I also tried the old one that was working fine with no luck. What gives? Can you not update your Windows password periodically? I need to figure out how to get in to my computer..

After upgrading two old household laptops to Windows 10 through the step up dealio, I decided it was okay and stable to update my one month old gaming machine as well,
( YES I forgot to back it up, stupid, yes. Only truly worried about my save game files as the critical information on my SSD, nothing dreadfully important besides lots of hours of wasted Witcher 3 time)
The update installed seemingly fine, although overnight and I woke up to the password login, whence from there I entered my password and the screen freezes and the PC restarts almost immediately and brings me right back to the endless cycle of Login/password entrance screen.
1.Can I make a bootable USB from my other laptops with Win10 currently Installed and use it to reinstall on my gaming rig, or at least download it online and do it that way?
2. Would reinstalling my Win7 delete any folders and files (save games and steam games not on backup 2TB HDD) that are on my SDD, basically downgrading windows back from the Win10 login to the Win7 stable version?
3. Could it be my GTX 970 crashing new Win10 because I didnt install the new Nvidia driver pre-Win10 install? Maybe try removing the card and booting with onboard i5 4690k GPU? (will try soon)
Why does this happen to my brand spanking new mid range rig and not the jalopy old laptops I have...
Specs: i5 4690k
AsRock z97x Fatal1ty Killer
Gtx EVGA 970 SC
Rosewill ARC 750w Bronze PSU
Gskill Ripjaws X 2x4GB RAM

When I attempt to login to Win 10 I am unable to log in on my desktop computer. It gives me the message, "incorrect password." I am having no problem logging in with my laptop. The password is acceptable. I have tried resetting the password through the desktop but it requires a password disk which I don't have. I changed the password on the laptop however the laptop continues to work and the desktop gives me the "incorrect password" error.

Yesterday my friend installed windows 10, but encounters an issue when logging in. He types in his password, but it says its invalid, he then clicks next, but then the screen goes black then reboots.
He has an HP Pavilion desktop.
Is there any way to revert back to windows 7, which he was previously on?
