Dear alt.comp.microsoft.windows, I recently had the displeasure of being forced to change my password on my Windows 11 tower. Now, I want to reset the password on the Windows 10 computer, so they are again the same -- that way, I believe the shares I set up earlier this year will work again -- and I have no idea how to do that. I tried looking it up on the Microsoftian website, but got this utterly useless drivel, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/accounts-billing/security/change-or-reset-your-microsoft-account-password-in-windows because I do not want to lock my screen, nor log out, when I change my password. Nor do I care about changing the password of the Microsoftian account, because that's different, and I don't use it to log myself in locally. Then, to top it off, I want to reconfigure my Windows 11 tower such that it will never ask me to change the password, again. I am perfectly willing to remember that on my own. Can a kind soul here in alt.comp.microsoft.windows point me in the right directions for either of these tasks? -- Johann | email: invalid -> com | http://www.myrkraverk.com/blog/ I'm not from the Internet, I just work there. | via Easynews.com https://bsky.app/profile/myrkraverk.bsky.social | for ( ;; ) _:;
