Never set a password for login for clean install but it asks me to change now?
I installed Windows 11 on a newly built pc a couple weeks ago. However, I didn't need a password to login before, and it's asking me to change my password now. The username displayed is "User". I’ve tried any combination of password I have used and it did not work
Any insights?

this happened to me once randomly on a boot, I just restarted again and it booted into windows normally, worth a shot.

Try resetting your password using the “I forgot my password” option on the login screen. This will guide you through steps to reset it, either via security questions or linked email/phone number if you set them up during setup.
