Windows 10 apps are supported and updated online via the Windows Store, and these include email, Skype, Groove music and Xbox Live. Your Windows 10 authentication (product key) is stored online, as are the decryption keys if your hard drive is encrypted. Your Microsoft account also connects your PC with companion apps on Apple iOS and Android smartphones and on other Windows devices. It allows you to save files from your PC to OneDrive (eg from WordPad), as well as to create files online. Windows 10 is a mobile operating system designed to work with a Microsoft account, which provides access to OneDrive cloud storage and a growing number of online applications, such as Calendar, People, Tasks, Office, Sway, etc. By extension, they also help to protect your friends and family, and the companies you deal with online. Passwords help to protect you and your work. It’s not sensible to operate computers without passwords, and there is a strong case for making them compulsory. However, the whole issue of Windows 10 accounts and passwords is so important that it’s worth a longer discussion. Asking Cortana for “change sign-in requirements” or typing req in the search box will get you to the right place.
If you set up a security question when you created your Microsoft account, you also have the option to recover your account by answering the security question instead.The quick and easy answer is to go to the Settings page of your account, look for the words “Require sign-in” and change the option to “Never”. Finally, set a new password for your Microsoft account. Once you receive the account reset code from Microsoft, enter the code that you receive in the email on the next page, and click Next. Assuming that you still have access to that email account, select Email and click Get code. The next page will ask you whether you want to email a security code to your email address so you can reset your password. On the next page, instead of entering your password, click Forgot Password? (depending on whether you’ve previously logged in, this link may be titled Forgotten your password? instead). Enter the email address that you used to sign up with Microsoft, and click Sign in.
If you’ve forgotten your Microsoft Office password, you can get a reminder from the Microsoft account login page. Click Forgotten your password on the login page (Image credit: Microsoft)
