Q: Password accepted for login but *not* screen lock!

Hi

 

I have a password on my user account that (pre-10.11) worked for login/screen lock/changing system preferences before upgrade...

 

Since upgrading to 10.11 (El Capitan), my user account password will allow login but ** WILL NOT ** work for screen lock/changing system preferences.

 

Nothing has changes other than upgrading, that password is the same one I had pre and post upgrade.

 

I have a secure password that meets apples' requirement for a "good password" - Choosing good passwords in Mac OS X - Apple Support

 

Help?

 

(oh and because I cant change any system preferences - I can not modify my password either)

MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11)
