Default Profile not setting Backgroud
Hello, this is driving me nuts! I'm just preparing our template for Windows Server 2025 VM rollout. I try to set a solid background in the default profile (c:\uses\default\ntuser.dat), so every new user gets this as default background. I have set HKCU\Control Panel\Colors Background REG_SZ 50 84 154 HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop Wallpaper REG_SZ HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DesktopSpotlight\Settings EnabledState DWORD 0 HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Wallpapers BackgroundType DWORD 1 but every new user/profile still gets the windows default background image (C:\WINDOWS\web\wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg). Don't want to use GPOs, as the setting should be optional. All other settings from teh default profile copy all right. Anyone any idea? Thanx! Cheers __Leo
Windows 11 lock screen bug
We are having an issue where some users cannot log back into windows 11 after going to a lock screen. Windows will tell you the password or username is incorrect even though the credentials are defiantly correct. The only solution I've found so far is to reboot the machine. What could be causing this? Our users are loosing unsaved work from having to reboot through out the day.
(URGENT!!) I fell for a phishing scam and ended up losing access to my Microsoft account.
Earlier today (9/13/2025) I ended up falling for a phishing scam via Discord, which ended up having me lose most if not all access to my Microsoft account. What I do know is that they changed the primary email, so my original email no longer works, and that there's a high possibility that they've sold it to a third party based on what they were saying. I was unable to make the automated recovery work because of the original email being changed. I'd hope to possibly get more assistance on this issue, I'll attempt to provide as much proof that I'm the original owner of the account based on my account history as: Original email address Last known password Approximated account creation date Details of my purchases Any assistance on how to proceed with this issue would be greatly appreciated!! Because I have quite a few personal details there that are sensitive. Thank you.
Certificate not showing up in Microsoft Learn account after passing exam
Hello all, Very sorry if I have posted this to the wrong place, but I cannot figure out how to get help to get my certification into my Microsoft Learn account. I have passed my exam, received an email that "Congratulations on passing your Exam" with a link to my Microsoft Learn account, but the certificate itself I cannot locate there. In my Microsoft Learn profile it also says that I have passed 10 exams (including the one I am looking for now), but I only have 9 certifications (surely because the one I'm looking for is missing). How can I get my certificate into my Microsoft Learn account? Or who can I contact about this, and how? Thanks in advance!How to transfer the Microsoft credentials I have earned on my alt, to my main account?
How can I transfer the Microsoft Certification credentials I’ve earned under one personal Microsoft Learn account to another personal account, ensuring that all certifications, badges, and transcripts are consolidated under my main profile? Both are personal account have the same legal name and verified thru Pearson Vue/Certiport.
Request to Consolidate Microsoft Learn Profiles and Access Certifications
Hello Microsoft Support, I have two Microsoft Learn profiles linked to different accounts: email address removed for privacy reasons and email address removed for privacy reasons. I cannot access all my certification achievements or download my certificates. Please help consolidate these profiles so all learning history and certifications are associated with a single account, preferably email address removed for privacy reasons. Thank you.Teams/Authenticator loop issue
Microsoft Teams/Authenticator are getting caught in an uninterruptable loop. I have tried everything from uninstalling/reinstalling the apps, clearing cache, clearing credentials and resigning in, everything I can think of. The loops continues and am not able to get logged in on the device. Azure sign-in logs show as successful but does not allow to be signed in. Any help is appreciated.Language outlook after recovery
My account was hacked and the language setting was changed. I recovered my account but the language remains the same. I changed the language many time and it would say the languged has been changed after clicking save but when i go back to the email the hacked language remains the same. I signed out and this over and over from different devices, different network but the language would not change. anyone went throught the same experience ?Anyone else feel like Teams is turning into Slack but slower?
Been using Teams at work and lately it feels like they’re adding a ton of features that kinda look like Slack (channels, reactions, integrations etc). But somehow it all feels heavier and slower to use. Curious if others feel the same or if it’s just me being impatient.Please I am currently locked out of my Azure Account due to MFA
I am unable to log into portal.azure.com due to MFA. I have MFA for my primary email registered on my Microsoft Authentication App, however I don't get login confirmation notification on the app for Azure Portal, only for other platforms like Microsoft365 or this Tech Community Discussion Forum that I was able to signup/login via MFA. Please can anyone help fix this, as this is urgent priority and I have a deadline to meet this morning. Thanks. Also, I can't raise a support Ticket on Azure due to this MFA issue.
