    Intalled Windows 10 on brand new laptop and it changed my password


    I just bought the Asus Zenbook and when I opened it it asked me if I wanted to install Windows 10, I did, but now for some reason it won't let me log-in telling me that the password I am using is wrong. I used the same password I had used to log-in when installing Windows 10.
    I have a Windows account and I went to the site and changed the password but it still won't let me in. So now I have a brand new laptop that I can't use.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Hello Duaclian, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)

    Is you laptop connected to the internet?

    It will need to be for it to be able sync with your online Microsoft account for the reset password to get applied.
