Problem with passwords (multi pc's)

Go to solution Solved by xDanielxOossiex,

I turned all the Sync Settings on and off again, seems to work.

Hey guys! I have a problem with my laptop and desktop, I want a different password on each of them, but they are syncing the passwords, even though I turned that off in the settings.

I first had my desktop, then a few months later, I got the laptop. I logged in to the same Microsoft account on both. I have had 0 issues (like syncing settings) with the laptop and pc till yesterday.

When I change my password on my desktop, the password also changes on the laptop, which I don't want.

AFAIK this isn't possible, as windows 10 has you log into your Microsoft account in order to log into the machine. You would need to disconnect the Microsoft account from one of the machines.
