I've been kicked off of Windows. MS says my password is wrong, every time I try to reset it it says I've already used that password. I've tried like 20 passwords, says I've used them all. I jammed on my KB (njdkljsnfmvsdED#@tr3t$T#$%TR34) and it said I used that.
So, basically, I'm permanently locked out of my computer. I've got my laptop and a USB Drive ready for an ISO. So I'm making the switch to Linux. Should I start with Ubuntu or something else?
yes
Give it back, Jamal
b-but windows just wurks?
only if you can login
Linux mint
Just werks. Installer does everything for you. Just did it yesterday.
Use rufus for the USB drive btw.
If it was a stolen computer I could just reformat and make a new account. I can't log into my account on my main pc or on microsofts websites or my laptop or anything.
I've been messaging Microsoft. This is hilarious. I show them the screenshot, they say reset the password, I try with a completely random one (this time I tried (MMooMMoooMM123$$12_) and again, "can't use the same password"
The.. the support.. says try another password..
so I do..
again, "same password"
he says "try a different one"
so I jam again, this time "fndskjiunfceFVRECFGerkifjchnicwkuefrku4j3"
>same password
if you're not a stealing nigger then just conact the support. better than asking us for help. but since you didn't contact support you're most likely a stealing nigger.
>ripping off microshit is "stealing"
for the amount of privacy-invading buttfuckery windows users have to put up with, they should pay you to use their OS
Imagine being so stupid you can't even remember a password you need to use daily to use your computer.
No. You pay for the privilege of being spied on with software that's permanently a beta release.

I *REALLY* hope you're baiting and you're not just an absolute retard.
Looks good imho. Which DE is that? Default cinnamon?
yes, default cinnamon
>Not using a local account
You made your bed now lie in it.
Okay thanks, I will try it on my Ubuntu the next days.
install gentoo
Time to install Linux
You can use a gmail as your microsoft ID. Did you not know this?
Yeah, I learned the hard way. Fuck me. To anybody else reading this ALWAYS USE A LOCAL ACCOUNT.
I said this in the OP. Why parrot me?
So update, after 4 hours talking to MS they said my account is unrecoverable. They say that it has a corrupt password that can not be changed. Like fucking seriously? So they gave me a free copy of windows and refunded all of my xbox purchases.
This is actually fucked, I've never heard of this happening before.
So I tried linux but couldn't get Photoshop or 3dsmax to run well (need both for work). Before you tell me to use gimp and blender let me find a new job where I can, because I can't at my current job.
