    Hello, Emily

    I forgot my pc password and failed to logon. Now my question is, it's possible to use my phone to logon on my Microsoft account and find my pc password. Microsoft account password is different with my pc password, bear in mind.

    Please assist me as soon as you can and thanks in advance for your help.

    Best Regards

    Kenneth Mtshali

    Hello, this is Emily.

    Are you currently using your Microsoft account to sign into Windows? If so, your Windows password is your Microsoft account's password. The same password you use when you sign into http://account.live.com.

    If you are using a local user to sign into Windows, your Windows password is your current local user's password, basically the password you use to sign into your Windows.

    Let me know the context here so I can perhaps help you further solve anything you are trying to solve.

    No I am not using the Microsoft account to sign into Windows. It logs in automatically. However, although the program allows you automatic access, there are other operations that it requires Windows Password. Getting back to the original question, "is there a way to find out what the password is, or is there a way to reset the password?"

    Thank you.
