What to do if you forgot the password of the account "Microsoft"?

Unfortunately (for us users), Microsoft is closely monitoring the registration of patents of copyrights and the development of new software products and their use in the future. It is therefore proposed to create their own “uchetku” to confirm that you are not “pirate”. But what to do when you forgot the password of the account “Microsoft”? This, incidentally, concerns not new software products, namely entering the system when you upgrade it to Windows 10.

What is a Microsoft account?

As many users realize “maykrosoftovskie use.” there is nothing like a regular registration on the official website (it is assumed that you will create a username and password).

Unfortunately, registration is not possible without entering some personal information, including even the location. Quite often, this problem is not so much a desktop or laptop, Network, or terminal running a system update to the tenth version, but with the fact that the service of the Corporation initially track your location (like Google Chrome) even when disabled in settings.

Of Course, plus the fact that you can set the settings for remote system control from any external terminal, but in this case nothing good is guaranteed

Simple methods of access to “uchetku”

Consider a simple situation. For example, the user forgot the password of the account “Microsoft" Windows 8.1. So what? No need to do this problem.

First of all, let's look at the very copy of Windows. As implied, in our case (especially when constantly enabled Internet access) the system requires a password entry, specifying the user login automatically. It's one thing when user created the password by using a key generator and saved it with a configuration file that provides easy access to the system, say, on the drive. Another thing, when even such a init system is broken.

Let us say at once: if you have forgotten the password for the account “Microsoft Windows 8” (for example) is not a reason to panic. To restore absolutely all personal data (even without Internet connection) there are so many opportunities that a regular user myself and can not imagine. This is due only to the fact that the system continuously monitors not only the location of the person using it, but the category most frequently visited websites, file downloads, applications used and much more.

On the basis that at the slightest attempt installation when the report is sent immediately to the Corporation (and do not say that you have enabled the privacy policy of this not happening). But there is another problem. For example, the user first tried to create a “uchetku”, but then for some reason asked the question: “Have an account “Microsoft”. Forgot password. What to do in this case?” For starters, see how it works initially.

Create and edit personal information and passwords

For example, take the “clean” Windows 10, which was first available in the form of a Technical Preview version, then upgraded for free (unless, of course, some of users have followed such recommendations) to build Windows 10 Pro.

This OS when you upgrade (not a clean installation) bares all, so to speak, “sins” of the old system, over which it is installed. And that is why the old passwords, for example, when you log on even with administrator right just don't work. System security is that passwords like “12345” are not perceived as the most vulnerable from the point of view of access by unauthorized users or fraudsters in the system. Want to change the password in user accounts, even if you are an administrator? As it is not so! It will not work. The system has already reserved a registration record with a username and password, so that when you login you will have to enter this information.

On the other hand, it can be elementary to turn off-even asking for the administrator password when you boot Windows or when you exit hibernate mode (sleep). But that's only the password and “account” will not change. Moreover, the system will keep asking for rights clearance, for example, when downloading files or opening certain programs and applications. But that's sad. You are your own administrator. Why, to put it mildly, "spits"?

What to do if you forgot the password of the account “Microsoft”?

Tau-called “forgetfulness” in terms of policy of Microsoft is quite clear. The more often a user contacts the service (or any other resource), the more confident the company in terms of the world rankings.

Well, suppose you have a situation where you have an account “Microsoft”. Forgot your password... what to do now? What the sad thing is, such users initially mindlessly follow “tips”system by providing personal data to personal notification, that is to say, “if anything”. And that, as a rule, for not even address, or the e-mail server. Most importantly, field – a mobile phone number when registering to send a special code to cases of loss of mobile device or, for example, accidental tampering with computer systems from the outside without your knowledge.

In this case it is recommended just go to the official website and when you try entering a username or password to use the official tools. In other words, if you enter at least a valid email address and then entering your existing code, you can get on “soap” the email, which will link you confirm that you really requested this operation. Now only need to go to the link, change the password and re-login with your account.

In addition, it is worth considering one more time. The fact that the deactivation of passwords or account – that's still half the trouble. But the destruction of the most “accounts” - that is a problem.

Forgot password account “Microsoft’ on your Windows Phone: what to do?

What can I say? Equally, if you forgot the password of the account “Microsoft" Windows in the stationary system, with the same problem will face on mobile gadgets based on this OS, specifically, Windows Phone.

The Fact that the system blocks access to the unit with a missing SIM card, however. Then just enter the username and password specified during registration. But what to do when the user forgot the password of the account “Microsoft”, for example, in connection with the loss of phone?

To start is to check your email. There will definitely be the message that your gadget was attempted unauthorized access (usually your e-mail is indicated during registration). Now just follow the confirmation link and change the old password with a new one (this option, however, does not always work).

If you did not work, register again. But! The biggest problem is that the delete check is theoretically possible. Official site for this account reports that this procedure requires a minimum of 60 days. In fact it is not. Your record will not disappear and is not disabled (tested on Windows 10 Pro with the latest updates).

Roughly speaking, the system still keeps track of your actions, whether you like it or not. Even off the Internet, too, came to nothing lead. As soon as the relationship, alas, your data will be sent.

The Maximum that can be done in such a situation, simply go to the website and try to change the existing username and password. Note! At a constant Network connection even on behalf of the administrator, the system will not allow to do so.

How to do it better?

In General even impossible to offer some optimal solutions. Well, except that you can advise just not to create a “uchetku”. On the other hand, if you constantly follow the updates of Microsoft products, why not? Moreover, now the updates of the system are such that you can easily update the entire Microsoft Office Suite, and completely free. Yeah, and if forgot account “Microsoft” (suddenly happened), there is no doubt though that the system itself will remind you about what you need to make certain steps for its restoration. Unfortunately, the binding of a specific computer to lost records are unsuccessful, as in the modern computer world there are no two identical identifiers (ID).
