    I found the problem. Windows Security kept throwing the error so, I pulled up the site on another machine and it worked.

    It normally happens just before completion of CF 10 installation when it is trying to configure thing by CF admin login but login attempt fails to complete installation, If you are getting this error “Invalid Password. Please try again.” even after reseting password then you can perform following to resolve this windows security issue:-

    1. Access that URL from any remote machine(using IP Address) of CF 10 server or you can also try accessing this URL on local machine through other browser than native O.S. browser then it will complete installation.
    2. Access CF admin page on local CF server machine through localhost and it works but when accessing through 127.0.0.1 gives same error then clear windows Internet Explorer cache(or native O.S. browser cache).

    Hello, KaifAkbar.

    Your suggestions worked on my first machine that has a fresh install of CF 10.

    But when I encountered the error on my second machine which has a CF8,  I could not make it work. I tried all your suggestions but no luck.

    I shut off all my CF8 services and install CF 10. I could not login to the CF Admin even with the correct password. I even tried to reset the password and restart the CF10 services.

    Any idea is really really appreciated.  I have a 64-bit Windows 2008 Server R2 machine.

    Thanks in advance
