(Sorry if this was posted in the wrong forum, this place is confusing!)
Hey, I keep running into this message whenever I try to log into my PC: "Your PC is offline. Please sign in with the last password used on this PC". It's a total nightmare, I've tried all the fixes I could find and none of them have worked so far...
As I'd expect with this kind of stuff there's no straight-up answers or quick fixes. I've Googled this problem a few times and most of the results talk about a total re-installation or using some kind of third party software. Though a few posts mentioned something about the servers blocking the PC if the wrong password is used too many times, and I think that might be my issue right now?
If it makes any difference, I dual boot on this machine and I use Ubuntu 99% of the time. Ubuntu is set to French and so are all my Microsoft things, but Windows 8 is set to English, and it's been several months since I last used Windows 8. I'm not really sure what the exact version is, sorry. :confused:

- I've changed my Windows Live password (several times in one night) and it still gives me that same message.
- Yeah, I sign into Windows 8 with my Live account... at least, I think so?
- The actual computer is connected to the Internet. I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting, it makes no difference.
- I don't know what my last password was, that's why I changed it!
- I've tried typing the password out in lower case letters, but it just isn't budging.
