Log-on message about incorrect password, but it’s not
When I start up Windows 7, I get a message informing me of an incorrect user name or password. This has happened only since I changed my Administrator password a few days ago. (There are no other users of my laptop).
Under the message, I can click “OK” and that takes me to the log-in field. There, my newly abbreviated administrator name appears and the system successfully (but slowly) logs me on after I’ve typed in my new password. (Before I changed the password, I never had to type any password at all. Actually, I now think it’s a good idea to do so).
Under the login field, there is always a link to reset the password. And under that, a link to change the user. To get rid of the problem, should I simply reset with a completely new password here?
I don’t understand why my new, two-day-old, administrator password is not recognised immediately when I start up Windows each day.
Thanks in advance
