WHS "Update Password" problem with Windows 10 RRS feed

  • Question

  • I am having a problem with Windows Home Server, v1 and the Windows 10 login credentials. If I log in to Windows 10 using my Microsoft Account (email address), which has a different password than my WHS password (Local Account), then I get the WHS "Update Password" box appear. I don't know how to have both things work at the same time. I want access to WHS and to log in with my email address in Windows 10. Can someone guide me on how to get this done? Does all this make sense?

    Thanks!

  • What happens, if you enter your WHS account name in Credential Manager in the form Windowshomeservername\Accountname and the Windows home server password?

    This is the only way I can imagine working since WHS v.1 run out of support and will never be aware of the Microsoft account. (I also use a domain account on my Windows 10 testsystems, so no experience with the MS account in this context.
