ok, explain to me please if you can, why it told me that i had the wrong password. So i created a new password useing the one i had wanted.. It told me i couldn't reuse an old password. If it knew that was my old password, why did it tell me it was the Wrong password?

[@markk364]

The BEST REASON is that when you log into a MS Account to use Windows, MS can track all of your activities, save the data and SELL IT to the highest bidder.

Can you show me/us how to change a group chat profile picture on mobile teams?

Why do I need to be online for the tower in Minecraft dungeons? It's not an online multiplayer feature, you can literally play it in single player. And even if it is, I shouldn't need a Microsoft account for that.

A Microsoft Account is like an Apple ID that’s less frustrating to reset your password.

[@BrianGovatosinapub]

Funny you say that. We are needing to drive to an actual Apple retail store just because of a forgotten password and passcode. Unreal.

Never had Apple throw my full name up in a directory path during a Zoom call while fetching a document

Why is creating a Microsoft account very hard.
I have tried several times and completely failed

No need to be shy, but it is cute

I know why you want to get a Microsoft Account? to steal your money. It happened to me. can you explain why they are stealing money out of anyone a account?

[@jcmo69]

Ummm your Microsoft account spews my full name all over my system including my desktop and the settings area. Sometimes I share my desktop with people who don't need that information...
