How to change MyPC Desktop Profile Password

If you use MyPC on your client computer, your login is tied to a Windows user account—this could be a local account or part of your organization’s domain. When you change your Windows password, it’s important to update that password in MyPC desktop profile too. This ensures you can continue to access your profile without any interruptions. In this article, we’ll walk you through the steps to edit your MyPC desktop profile and update your password.

Why You Need to Update Your MyPC Desktop Profile Password

To avoid these issues, it’s best to update your password in MyPC as soon as you change it in Windows.
