Windows 10: Can't log-in to windows even tho I have entered the correct password.

I have created a local profile where it is not connected to any account and doesn't have any password and I named it - Guess_I did this so if any of my family member would like to use my computer, they could just click that and and it would open up. Because I did not want to give them my password on mine which is set as Admin account on my computer. Now, when I tried to go back to my account and entered the password. I did type the CORRECT password, but it kept saying - Please enter the correct password... I even restarted my pc few times already but it is still not solved. Please send help.

:)
