    Default We need to fix your Microsoft account.

    Each time I boot Windows I see a notification "We need to fix your Microsoft account ( most likely your password has changed). Select here to fix it in shared experience settings"
    I've selected "here" umpteen times but can not see any problem at all. Everything including browser and mail is functioning as it should. Any ideas please?

    Some of the comments under that link had me laughing my head off =)

    Then today, I saw this;

    "Patch Tuesday isn’t until next Tuesday, but Windows is already getting cumulative updates this week. Microsoft is addressing a critical vulnerability in various Windows 10 versions, including the latest version 21H1, but also going back to the original Windows 10 release."

    Say what? How many years has win10 been out? Then all this time, M$ have left these vulnerabilities unfixed...until now?

    Seriously, who would put up with this? Wrt to topic, that issue seems to be related to the last win10 update, and going by reports effects various users regardless of whether they have (or use) a 'microsoft ID' or not. I reckon it's nothing more complex than a bug M$ introduced...but don't worry! Eventually M$ will fix/patch it....hopefully within the next 5 years...

    ...oh wait, M$ will be expecting all users to update to win11 by 2025, so I guess there's really no incentive for MS to do anything if this is a bug =)
