Windows 10: Can’t continue thru recovering options due to correct password being labeled as incorrect

So my AIO Lenovo is due for a refreshed, after some months where my Bluetooth, by way of the hardware aint on your system no more, tried several methodsAnd finally decided to just clean up and star anew I guess. Except when I get to the step in which I’m asked the password for my hotmail account, which though I can’t recall using that account to set it up, and ever since the last time I went thru a similar procedure, I’ve always signed in with a four digit pin instead which btw I did try and enter it Now the problem is the even after confirming I was entering the correct password, and moreo

Incorrect Password with correct password!

So this is new. I refreshed my PC due to some odd issues and relinstalled some needed drivers. One being for my Netgear A6210 (which has been giving me troubles in the past like failing to connect to the network when waking up from sleep).

So my A6210 has no issue connecting to my 2.4Ghz network but now (which it didn't used to do before) it tells me my password for my 5G network is incorrect even though I know for a fact it is correct. My phone at the same distance as my wireless adapter connect to the 5G network with the same pass. I even changed the pass and had my phone connect to it again but the A6210 just fails to accept the pass. Windows just keeps telling me its incorrect.

I couldn't find much searching the web on this. Most say to reset router but the router is ok (since my phone can connect). I tried re installing the driver for it but issue persists.

To make sure it isn't some keyboard fault I copy the password exactly as it is set in the router's wireless setting page and paste it when it asks for the key.

 

Correct password is ‘incorrect’

Hello Amy,

In line with your concern, I would suggest to try using all the passwords you've used in the past and check if it lets you proceed starting in Safe Mode. Also, to better assist you with your concern, I'd like to know the following:

• Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:

1. Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
2. Click OK.

• What is the make and model of your computer?
• What is the error message that you're getting when you've experienced the blue screen error?

Looking forward to your response.

Regards.

 

password to Recover is incorrect

I am am trying to recover my PC because since my last update my computer boots to Windows but before everything loads I get a message which says that my PC will automatically restart in one minute. I do not have time to do anything when Windows is
booted. I am trying to recover my PC but it says my password is incorrect. I have reset my password. When I try to sign in however, it says my password is incorrect. So I am unable to do any of the repair or recovery options or even get to a c prompt
b/c they all require a password. I feel as if I am stuck in an eternal loop in windows and the recovery options. I am able to log into my Microsoft account from other devices without issues. Any assistance or advice would be appreciated.
