    Hi! Thanks for your feedback!

    Which app is it? Please provide more details.

    Please answer my other questions; they are important.

    1. You mentioned that you changed your password. Did you change it before attempting to log in, or afterwards in an attempt to resolve the issue?
    2. Are you unable to select the other options, such as Password or Facial Recognition?

    Hi!

    Are you experiencing this issue on the Windows lock screen, in a Microsoft app, or on a Microsoft website?

    • If it is a website, try using a different browser.
