No Password entry option Windows 10 build 10041 (and 10049) unable to log in

Hello. I upgraded using the automatic process from within Windows 7 home premium. I'm using an All-in-one machine with 4gb RAM and 3.10ghz Core i3.
Initially I had a local account with no password, which automatically logged me in from start up. Everything ran smooth and well. I switched to a microsoft account which requires a password, in order to install apps from the Metro store.
I shutdown overnight, and return the next morning, and I'm faced with the usual screen. A large image, few icons. I swipe upwards on screen or press space to move along and log in. My username is presented to me, but the password input field is missing.
It says "Andrew" and has my email beneath it, but the password box is just not there. I clicked the screen randomly but nothing showed up. I've tried typing anyway but still nothing.
This left me comlpletely unable to sign in and use windows. In dire need of a PC to use, I activated a workaround which allowed me to use cmd without logging in and used the /active command on the hidden administrator. This is the only accessible use of
my PC I've got, and my files are buried deep within C:/users/..... and so on.
As per the title, I also had this issue in build 10049 but I had to revert back since I locked the PC using window+L out of habit, and I couldn't log back in. I reverted back to 10041 since having restarted the PC from being locked out, I encountered
boot loop.

Andrew754,
Are you saying that you are now in build 10041, and that you are unable to login because there is no option to enter the password ?
If yes, have you tried...... press Ctrl + Alt + Delete keys ?
Will that bring you back to normal sign in screen ?

  • Dell Bluetooth 365 not detected in Windows 10 Technical Preview (Builds 10041 and 10049)

    When I installed Windows 10 build 10041 on my 2009 Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop my Bluetooth 365 stopped working.  On investigation I saw that Bluetooth had disappeared from Device Manager completely, but no yellow '!' was apparent anywhere.   When I checked the BIOS the Bluetooth card was present.  I researched the issue for a couple of hours and realised that Dell did not have a Bluetooth 365 driver for anything later than Windows 7. (That Windows 7 driver had worked in Win 8/Win 8.1).  I discovered that the card is made by  Broadcomm and is also used by Lenovo in some of its laptops.  I downloaded the following driver from Lenovo's support site and installed it.  When prompted, click the 'update software' button, and a further installation will run.  If you wish, have Device Manager open and you will see the drivers and devices install.
    support.lenovo.com/.../ds031759
    It worked perfectly and my Bluetooth card was detected and configured and now all my Bluetooth devices work with Windows 10.
    The Dell 1545 with Bluetooth is a great workhorse PC and it would have been a shame if it could not have been used with Windows 10.  I hope it is not a sign of forced obsolescence by Dell, and that they will release Win 10 drivers for this venerable old laptop. It is a shame to have to go to a competitor for a driver. Judging by my web research there are many of this model still in everyday use.  I trust this will be of use to other users.

    There is a universal Broadcom Bluetooth Update which would cover this also:

  • Enabled Hyper-V causes "System thread exception not handled" BSOD in builds 10041 and 10049

    I had a Windows 10 TP build 9926 installation with Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition installed, when build 10041 was released Windows Update tried to install it but after restart it got BSOD with "System thread exception not handled" text and
    reverted back to 9926 with error code 0xC1900101-0x40017. I tried update from ISO, got the same BSOD. Tried clean installation, it worked. 
    I decided to install software and restart the system after each installation and discovered that installing Visual Studio 2015 CTP6 caused BSOD after restart if and only if emulators were included. Installation of  Visual Studio 2015 CTP6 without emulators
    and then installation of Tools for Windows 10 also caused BSOD with "System thread exception not handled" error after restart. 
    So I thought that it was Hyper-V related and disabled hardware virtualisation in BIOS settings. It worked, system successfully booted, but, of course, Tools for Windows 10 setup showed up and told me about fail in UAP for Windows Phone package.
    So, my hardware is Gigabyte GA-A75N-USB3 motherboard with AMD A8-3870 APU with integrated graphics, Intel SSDSA2CW080G3 80GB SSD and 8 GB RAM.
    Steps to reproduce are to enable "Virtualisation" item in BIOS settings, install Windows 10 Technology Preview Build 10041, install Visual Studio 2015 CTP6, install Visual Studio Tools for Windows 10 Preview, restart the system and
    see blue screen with white text of description of "System thread exception not handled" error.

    Same issue, MSI A75MA-G55 AMD Fusion Socket FM1 with A8-3850 APU, 16GB RAM.  Hyper-V worked in 9926, but broke in 10041 and remains broken in 10049.  I have found that if you get in this BSOD loop, you can boot to Safe Mode and Un-install Hyper-V
    to recover.  10041 was an update to 9926, and 10049 was a clean install.

  • HT201240 migrating to OS 10.5 from 10.4. I forgot the password to my encrypted home folder and am unable to log in and reach the desktop.

    It appears that I have lost the ability to log in and reach the desktop because of problems accessing my keychain for Filevault.So, I need to reboot from DVD, change my login password, which I can accomplish via the utilities menu in the startup OS 10.5 dvd, then change my filevault keychain password. OS 10.5 is installed on the macbook, by the way.
    I need to find a way to a similar utility that allows me to change the keychain password to filevault from the dvd as well. Is there a way to do this through the utilities menu? Changing the keychain access is recommended elsewhere using Apple menu's System Preferences selection, but the selection is  grayed out as is the entire Apple menu when I am at the startup installation screen, which is the same place I am able to access the utilities menu for the login password change. Please help.  Thanks

    Ouch, the Filevault/Master Password is totally different.
    One of the drawbacks of encrypting data is that if the user forgets his or her password, access to the files in the home folder is lost. If an account has FileVault enabled, an administrator user cannot use Accounts preferences to change that account's password, nor can the administrator user turn off FileVault for the account; only the user can do that.
    Because users often forget passwords, Mac OS X provides a master password feature to allow passwords on FileVault-protected accounts to be reset. The master password is used only as a back door for recovering FileVault-encrypted accounts. If during login a user enters three incorrect passwords for his or her FileVault-encrypted account, the account's password hint is displayed along with a Reset Password button. After the user clicks Reset Password and enters the master password (obtained from the administrator), he or she can set a new login password.
    If you forget the master password, you can reset it, but you must know the passwords for any accounts with FileVault enabled:
    As an administrator user, delete the master password keychain file (/Library/Keychains/FileVaultMaster.keychain). When the master password keychain is deleted, Mac OS X assumes that no master password is set yet.
    In Security preferences, set a new master password.
    Log in to each account that has FileVault turned on, and use Accounts preferences to reset the password for each account.
    NOTE
    Do not forget the master password! Although it is possible to reset the master password, it still requires all users with FileVault-protected accounts to know their passwords. If a user has forgotten his or her login password, and you have forgotten the master password, there is no way to recover the user's data.

  • How do i change my itunes id as the previous email is invalid and am unable to log in to update apps on ipad

    my ipad 2 originally had a road runner email and id.  I no longer use their service and cannot log into itune or apps to update appllications.  it is ios 8.1.  I've completely wiped out my ipad and reformatted as a new user, but the old email still pops up when I needed to update my apps.  the password wouldn't work because the ipad has new info on it, but I can't get the log in to disappear.  I've added a new email to have info sent to that as a rescue and that has worked and been verified by apple, but the iTunes store and apps store keeps wanting the password for the old app.  how do I change what itune and the app store say is my apple id.  I've made those changes at the apple site following the format it requires.  I am frankly stumped

    You should be able to update the primary email address (the rescue email address is not used as the account's id) on an account by logging into the account via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com, logging in via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and logging into it.
    Changing primary email address : Change your Apple ID.

    It is a "Bug" in Windows 10 build 10041 and 10049:
    John Rubdy    replied on    April 4, 2015                       
    Hello, 
    We have a bug, which in some cases is causing setup to download all available language packs during the installation of Builds 10041 and 10049.  We believe this is the cause of both of these issues.  It may also result in a few
    unexpected folders appearing on your desktop or in File Explorer.
    If you’re blocked from installing the latest build because you don’t have enough disk space, you’ll want to free up 2.5 GB of space to resolve the issue.
    If you want to reclaim the extra disk space from the language packs after installing the latest build:
    Open a command prompt as an administrator
    Bring up the interface for uninstalling language packs by typing the following command and press Enter:
    Lpksetup /u
         3. Select the language packs you want to uninstall.
    Thanks and regards,

  • Password reset option in Portal

    Hi Experts,
    I would like to integrate password reset option in between help and logout option in masthead.

    1.how to integrate a link in Masthead which on clicking enables end user to reset Password?
    2.is there any coding that i have to do for password reset?
    Thanks Inadvance!
    regards,
    Siva

    Dear Siva,
    I will try to address your questions as best as I can.
    But what you're asking is too much I'm afraid.
    It seems you're needing to learn the basic concepts of Portal development first.
    And explaining all those concepts on a forum post is simple impossible.
    Moreover, the component you're trying to develop is not an easy one to start with.
    My advise to you is to first read some manuals or attend a few SAP training sessions on the
    subjects:
    - JAVA development
    - JSP development
    - Developing Portal components
    Nevertheless, and trying to answer your questions as best as possible, here's some tips that I
    hope can guide you the right direction (and again, if you don't have the basics, you
    might not understand part of it):
    I have been through above wiki, its not indetail.
    Yes It is.
    The wiki shows you just what you need - the code.
    It is not a "how-to" develop a portal component. It assumes you know that already.
    I could not understand where to start from?
    You need to develop a Portal Component on your NWDS (Netweaver Developer Studio).
    On you NWDS go to
    File > New > Project.
    And inside that box, choose: Create a Portal Application Project.
    Now you need to create the Portal Component.
    Go with your left mouse button on the project you have just created and choose
    New > Other > Portal Application > Create a new Portal Application Object
    I would suggest JSPDynPage (here you can choose to create a JSP, Bean and a Java main class)
    Where do we find the 1. portalapp.xml, 2. Implement the Bean, 3. PasswordChange.java, 4. PasswordChange.jsp, 5. Success.jsp, 6. Redirection.java?
    You need to create all those JAVA and JSP objects yourself.
    The bean is a JAVA class that you need to create as well.
    The portalapp.xml is a file that is automatically created by the NWDS when you create a Portal Project.
    Provides configuration information for your application - it is like a "business card" of the application itself.
    And that "business card" will be presented to the Portal when deployed - saying "hello, I'm a Portal application
    and this is what I have inside".
    You can learn more about this XML file here:
    [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/44/489e2df5ee4e35e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]
    Hope this helps you.
    Good Luck!

  • All of a sudden: no options to sync calendar and contacts

    Newbie here (old time palmist).  Currently with treo 750, vista, syncing with outlook 07.
    All (has been) well for past 6 months. Suddenly, it no longer syncs my calendar and contacts.
    In the activesync options window, they (calendar and contacts) no longer exist as an option (only e-mail and tasks) to check off.
    Any suggestions? Where are they hiding??
    Thanks in advance,
    bz
    Post relates to: Treo 750 (AT&T)

    Try deleting the partnership
    1. Make sure the device is not connected to the computer
    2. In the treo go to PROGRAMS > ACTIVE SYNC> press the MENU button > go to OPTIONS.
    3. Under OPTIONS,select the name of the partnership ex: WINDOWS PC.. highlight it then tap on DELETE.
    4. Make sure all the partnerships had been deleted.
    5. Then connect the phone again,just follow the steps and you should have the option now to check calendar or contacts.

  • CHKDSK v6.2.9200.16384 dichotomy between Windows 12 Server x64 Standard Build 9200 and Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64

    I seem to have discovered a dichotomy between the ability of CHKDSK v6.2.9200.16384 to detect and repair an external NTFS drive, when executed on Windows 2012 Server Standard Build 9200 x64 and Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64. There should be no difference in executing
    the same application between these two systems.
    Even though both are 64-bit systems, and both are up to date, and both are running the same version of chkdsk, chkdsk on Windows 12 Server was UNABLE to detect an NTFS filesystem on an external WD 1TB USB drive (detected fs as RAW), while chkdsk on Windows
    8.1 Enterprise WAS ABLE to detect the NTFS filesystem on the same external drive, and was able to repair it.
    So, what is the difference between these two systems? Why should the same version of
    any application yield different results between these systems?
    The only result on Windows 2012 Server was:
    C:\Windows\system32>chkdsk /x /f M:
    The type of the file system is RAW.
    CHKDSK is not available for RAW drives.
    The result on Windows 8.1 Enterprise was:

    Hi,
    Please check if the Windows Server 2012 is still UNABLE to detect the external NTFS drive after attach the drive from the Windows 8.1 back to the Windows Server 2012.
    A RAW filesystem simply means that it is a filesystem that is not recognized by Windows. The most common cause of external hard drives suddenly becoming RAW drives is if they are disconnected from a computer without using the “Safely Remove Hardware” option.
    You can use the Dskprobe tool (Dskprobe.exe) to make repairs to check it the issue still exist on the Windows Server 2012.

  • Windows 10 TP Build 10041

    Hi Insiders
    I have downloaded and installed build (10041) but when it boots to set up the settings it sits on 30% i have left my laptop on all night and still on 30%.
    I shutdown and restored to 9926 now i have a error when updating  0x800705b4 i have searched and is has to do with the realtek semiconductor corp. update for realtek high definition audio.
    but I see -fbl_impressive 10041 Professional in the update and i cant get it because of this error with Realtek

    There is an article posted by John W [MSFT] in another forum. He is also a Microsoft employee.
    One of the topics he wrote about was : Realtek driver installation timeout issue (error 0x800705b4)
    He suggested a "workaround".
    excerpt..............
    Issues that should be fixed but didn't make it into Build 10041
    Unfortunately we missed integrating these fixes into the Windows Insiders Build by
    one day, however the fixes work in our testing and will be in the next build:
    1. Realtek driver installation timeout issue (error 0x800705b4) - Excellent workaround here:
    http://kb.stonegroup.co.uk/index.php?View=entry&EntryID=289
    Note : the workaround involves registry editing. Be careful and follow the steps to the letter.
    I don't know your computer skill level, if you are not comfortable doing registry editing, DON'T do it.
