    Windows 10 SafeMode does not recognize my current password


    I have not been able to boot my computer into safemode because it does not recognize my current Microsoft account password. I double checked that I have the correct current password by signing into my account online. I do not know what my original password was when I first created my account. I did try my normal Windows sign-in pin and of course that did not work either. How can I fix this issue?

    :)

    Windows 10 Password problem in safemode

    Hi,

    For us to isolate the issue, we will need to ask you a few questions:

    • Are you getting any error messages aside from password incorrect?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far, after being stuck in safemode sign in screen?
    • What are you trying to do when you enter safemode with networking through msconfig?

    Regards.

    Networking in Safemode

    I tried uninstalling and re-installing the adapter and it didn't work. I tried another suggestion I found doing a search. They suggested to click on the Network Icon before booting in to Safemode and connecting to the adapter. The only thing listed was Airplane mode. I guess Windows 10 will not initialize a wireless adapter in Safemode.

    Networking in Safemode

    Thanks everyone for trying to help. I have tried all the suggestions posted. When I try to access the wireless adapter before booting in to Safemode the only thing listed is Airplane mode. I'm guessing either Asus or MS doesn't want me to use wireless networking in Safemode.
