Change Password

When I log into my mail account (outlook) I have to enter my password everytime to get to my emails. The system tells me to change my password. I used to check a box when I entered my password to keep me logged in. Now that box is no longer there for me to check. How do you change your outlook password?

actually microsoft password has to be changed from profile

Everytime I type outlook.com it takes me to my email page. does that implies it takes you to your mailbox from where you can directly view your email and sent if so yes .then you must have checked keep me sign in while logging into your outlook ..you can change this just log out of your account

and if you want to change password from your mailbox please follow

click on circle at top left corner->profile->security->change password
