i setting cortana.. have logged in & need enter windows password.  i not have 1.  i cannot past point

hi,

before go further, confirm following help:

1. regarding sentence “i have logged in & need enter windows password.  not have”, mean required enter old password activate cortana?

2. version of account using login system, via local account or microsoft account?

based on experience, if using windows local account. cortana requires convert microsoft account, cortana can't used when signed in windows local account.
when signed in windows local account , setting cortana, converts account ms account. that's phase one, cortana asking your ms account email address , password. phase 2 kind of "identity check", windows wants know it's , not else happened find pc signed in desktop. that's why asks give 1 last time the password of old windows 10 local user account.

go through following link set microsoft account:
