Change Windows 7 password - this is how easy it is

Microsoft stopped supporting Windows 7 several years ago. This means no new updates for Windows 7 will be released, and the firewall will also no longer be updated. So for security reasons, you should change the Windows 7 password regularly. This is easily done through the user settings.

How to change the password in Windows 7?

Change your password on Windows 7 with a Microsoft account, note that the password changes on all devices.
  1. Click the Start icon in the lower left corner of the mouse, and then continue clicking the gear.
  2. Go on to "Accounts" and then "Login Options".
  3. Under "Password", you can click "Change" here.
  4. Should you be using a Microsoft account, you now need to enter your old password again to log in with it. Now you can enter a new password.
  5. Use a local account, just click "Next" and enter your new password in the following window. Bestätigen Sie dieses durch eine erneute Eingabe und geben Sie einen Kennworthinweis an.
  6. Mit „Weiter“ bestätigen Sie das neue Passwort.
  7. Am Ende müssen Sie nur noch auf „Fertigstellen“ klicken und der Vorgang ist abgeschlossen.
  8. Wenn Sie sich das nächste Mal bei Windows 7 anmelden möchten, benutzen Sie bitte das neue Passwort.
