The users of its operating system Microsoft Windows 10 will eventually be able to restore them codeto access their account from the lock screen, while the company is reportedly currently testing a feature that would allow password recovery with the help of Cortana's digital assistant.
The new feature is already available in the latest version of Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, and the new password recovery option appears next to the link options link.
As the MSPU, Microsoft has designed the entire process to be very intuitive, since when a user clicks on the “Forgot my password” option, a wizard appears to guide them through the entire process. Cortana asking for information to retrieve the password, such as a different email address, or a phone number, or a Microsoft verification code Authenticator.
Once these details are given, Microsoft will allow you to choose a new password for your account and ultimately allow you to sign in to Windows 10.
At this time, the feature is only available in Microsoft's latest test build, but with the release of the upcoming Windows 10 Fall Creators Update in September, everyone will be able to use it.
Restoring passwords for Microsoft Accounts in Windows 10 is something the operating system users have repeatedly asked because it was almost impossible to connect to their systems if they did not have another device connected to the internet.
Microsoft is reportedly already very close to finalizing the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update and is preparing to launch its final Bug Bash before its public release. This means that most of the news characteristics that we have seen from time to time in test builds will be integrated and the upcoming builds will mainly focus on bug fixing.
The Bug Bash will be launched this Friday and will last for a whole week. During this time, Microsoft will record user comments and comments to analyze them later. This will look at which features need improvement before the release of the functional.
