Stop the "don't lose access to your account" nonsense.

I'm prevented from logging in by a "set it up now" button on the generic log in page (using IE10). Like any security conscious enterprise, my company manages my passwords and isn't interested in this "nanny state" option. How do I bypass it?

    this is what the admins get here. we do not want admins to have to give out personal info to change passwords. also, if an admin leaves the company but we need to keep the account active, we do not want them to have the ability to change the password just because they supplied a personal email or phone number. we want to control that through our access.

    Sorry, I have been extremely busy and just catching up on this. Where do I send a private message?

    Responded to your private message. Can't see what investigation is really needed - just don't show the nag screen for accounts that sign on using ADFS SSO.
