I had one PC that didn’t update my Microsoft account password for months.
After a few investigation clicks, I discovered the solution:
- log in by using your outdated password, or even another valid credentials.
- open the Command Prompt and type the following:
runas /user:MicrosoftAccount\<your account email address> winver.exe
It will run ‘winver.exe’ (a harmless system program) with your credentials asking for the account password.
Enter your current password, and it’s done.
