I was able to create a different admin log-in account to log in to my system. My original login was a Microsoft account and for the life of me, I have no idea why I can't log in to my original account...but I have access to my system now.

Windows 8 have what is a Microsoft account and a Local account option, I have had to change some people accounts from Microsoft to Local account, Local Account type is more like Windows 7 and previous.
One person I had down the road could not login because it was not somehow picking up on the correct address with microsoft.

I'm also noticing that some fonts aren't working correctly...for example the #s when I do a search are showing up as the generic square or Chinese characters...as seen in the attached .png

I wonder is something in the language settings is wrong like the keyboard selection. (primary, secondary) Locale, etc.

Languages and locations seem to check out ok...some more anomalies I'm noticing: my main system drive (C:) is reporting as over 1 TB in size, I think it's a 150 max, clicking on "searched" settings doesn't do anything either, task manager does not show any processes running even though CPU is at 99% ...

Windows 8 and a 150 size drive, Doubt it, It would be way to small now days can't even buy 320 drives
I spotted users with the searched" settings doesn't do anything problem in win 8 and 8.1
