There shouldn't be a problem with changing your live.com account password.
Have you tried a forced shutdown by the command line? Open a command
prompt, type in
shutdown /s /t 1
and see what happens? If it works, try a normal shut down again and see
if that works.

Well, over the weekend, I found out that the password for my hotmail
account had been pwned, so I changed it on Live.com. Since that time, Win
10 won't shut down. Was it a problem that I changed my password to my
linked account that way? When I click the shutdown button, nothing happens
until I do Cntrl-Alt-Del, then there's a quick flash of an error message
and the spinning dots show up and that's where it sits. I haven't let it
run that way more than 10 minutes, though.
Any ideas?
Thanks....Steve
