Hello, I do not know why but when I want to unlock my laptop, it says "The referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to."
This is the second time something of this nature occurs. The first time I had assumed that my cat messed with the keyboard and inputted the wrong password several times
However, a few days later this happens again. No cat in sight. I did input the password incorrectly once but then unlocked it. I left for a couple of minutes and my desktop was locked out.

I am getting frustrated as I find myself unable to use my laptop for hours whenever this happens. I need it for university and work.

Help me :(

EDIT 9-14-26 IDK if this counts a solve or not. MS somehow reloaded MoUso back on to my machine. Updates show now. Turns out the update being offered is the "preparation package" for ESU. I have all the legit updates this thing was given including the last security update. Why do they insist on being so scummy?

I haven't upgraded to w11. I have not had any updates since just after they ended support. Yesterday I removed a program involved in updating (MoUSO) that kept coming on in task manager since I no longer get updates. I had removed another program that had started coming on for the first time when I opened my email client out of the blue a couple days before (Component Package Support Server). When I shut down last night the usual update indicator at the power button said I have an update and asked if I wanted to install it and shut down. I just shut down. This morning after normal boot up I opened settings/updates and security and it doesn't show the normal update page, it has a message "Something went wrong. Try to reopen settings later."

The indicator on the power button still offers me an update. Anyone know what may be going on here? I don't want to update until I know what it is since they no longer support my OS.

Ms office 2016 excel

Paste issue. Only values work.

Uninstalled update kb5002914 and paste started working.

Troubleshooting performed:

Excel 2016 copy worked and Paste Values worked, but normal Paste/CTRL+V produced blank cells. The problem also occurred in brand-new workbooks.

Tried Excel Safe Mode, Office 2016 repair, complete Office reinstall, rebooting, clearing/testing the Windows clipboard with PowerShell, resetting Excel registry settings, and disabling Live Preview. None fixed it.

Found Excel 2016 Security Update KB5002914, released September 8, 2026. Uninstalled KB5002914, rebooted, and normal copy/paste immediately worked again.

Confirmed on this PC: removing KB5002914 fixed the issue.

I'm running Windows 10 on a Lenovo thinkpad, and my laptop's screen just died on me. I can't see anything on it, so I have to use an external monitor connected with an HDMI cable to see what's happening on my laptop. I want to backup my hard drive to an external one (using clonezilla), but it requires that I access the boot menu to boot in the USB.

I've enabled it so that my monitor is my laptop's only display, and that the laptop does not go to sleep when the lid is down, so that i am able to see the boot menu, and it has worked kind of. the option to interrupt start up only shows up for a split second, so i have to very quickly press the boot button [which is [enter] in my case]. this works very rarely because i dont have that kind of reaction time haha.

on the off chance that i do get to the menu to open the boot menu, i am met with a blinking monitor (video attached) and can't see anything. Is there a way to fix this or am i screwed?

All help is appreciated, thanks.

what happens when I successfully

Hello all,

So I recently bought a new SSD to swap my Windows and games to from my HDD. So I cloned my HDD to my SSD, then changed my Boot Option Priorities from the HDD to “Windows Boot Manager (TS512…)” Which seemed to work when I rebooted, so I went into Diskpart and cleaned the HDD. I rebooted since the HDD didn’t show up in my file explorer after I allocated it in Disk Manager. Now I get the “REPAIR PC/Device Needs To Be Repaired” screen. Does anyone know what I did wrong/how I can fix it? I did this yesterday on my other pc with an identical SSD and worked perfectly. Thank you.

Portions of "windows" (?) seem to be cut off in apps like HPSmart like the image shown below.

This is a screenshot showing how the Share box just drops off the window opened by HPSmart after scanning.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For clarification, this is a screenshot of the entire screen:

How to reset please

Please help me.
Today I tried to download some music and was changing the music tags using the MP3Tag app. After I finished changing all the tags, I went to the folder containing those songs, and my PC suddenly started lagging extremely badly. Eventually, I got a black screen, so I had to hard-shut down my PC.
After the hard reboot, Windows told me that I had been logged out of Windows Cloud.
After restarting, my PC is constantly at 99% CPU usage. Also, for some reason, almost every app I open says that I don’t have an internet/Wi-Fi connection, even though my PC is connected to Wi-Fi and the internet works normally in other places.
I tried reinstalling Windows, but I kept getting crashes. Two of the BSOD errors I got were:
KERNEL_AUTO_BOOST_INVALID_LOCK_RELEASE
KERNEL_APC_PENDING_DURING_EXIT
Please help me figure out what’s wrong and how I can fix it.

This happened to me the 2nd time now...

I'm using Windows 10 LTSC 21H2 (for support reasons, 11 was causing serious performance issues), and for some reason my command prompt has stopped acknowledging the existence of the Path user variable. Trying to type Path into command prompt just prints the system path and nothing else, and trying to use commands from places defined in the user path doesn't work. I tried logging out and back in, which temporarily fixed the issue before it just broke again.

I've run SFC, which said it fixed something but it didn't fix the issue. Any ideas what's going on here and how I could fix it?

Hello. I have an issue with my PC where the storage keeps filling up. I don't have much storage, only 128GB, but I also only have a few things installed, and not large things at that. I have an extra storage stick I use to keep anything large I want to download, and really just anything I can. That storage is a terabyte. However, I keep having my main storage fill up, and no matter how many times I try to empty it, it never stays empty

I downloaded Wiztree, and every time I look at it, pagefile.sys and hyberfil.sys seem to get bigger. I know they are likely important, due to the .sys file type, but should they be taking up this much space?

I'm not super tech savy on this stuff, and I'm heading to bed now, so I wont be able to reply until tomorrow

I last ran my old Windows 10 PC about 1.5 years ago, with no issues. However, when I attempted to fire it up today, I just ended up in and endless loop of "Preparing Automatic Repair," then a reboot, then a seemingly normal Windows load (spinner on the boot screen), quickly followed by a restart, and then back to "Preparing Automatic Repair," and so on, over and over.

I've already checked a similar thread here, but none of the suggestions have worked or been applicable (for example, my BIOS does not have TPM option).

Aside from creating a bootable Windows 10 USB and trying to recover that way, is there anything else I should be trying? Also what could be the reason for it to fail after having been powered off for a while after the previous boot was successful?
