Windows 10: Help, locked out of Windows , safe mode password won't work. Want to re-enter Normal Mode.

This going to be quite long , please bear with me.

I have an ASUS ROG G752, I decided to upgrade my SSD to 2TB. So a technical service cloned my SSD and since i had 2 slots , they also left the old drive

Everything went well but I saw my performance of new SSD was not as good as it should be, and the reason was that in BIOS , it's setup as Raid and not AHCI as it should.

So i followed the instruction on this video and this is where I have a problem : ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ngnIKqPOc4 )

I wrote bcdedit/set safeboot minimal.

So now my computer is always booting on safe mode but somehow when in safe Mode, it won't recognize my password. I know my password is correct because I reset it a month ago and saved everything on 1password. I tried older passwords, that didn't work either. I usually enter Windows with my PIN code.

The problem is because of the command above now the computer is always forcing safe mode so I don't know if there is any command to Force Windows to login NOT on safe mode, but just regular mode where everything is working.

I tried to reboot with shift pressed, advanced, etc. and then "enter my operating system" but it will still boot to safe mode because of that command.

Right now, i'm logged to Windows in my original SSD. Since I need to access my computer to write all of this , I thought that I could access Windows this way which actually worked.

I have 3 drives.

C: ( New SSD)

D: ( HDD for data)

F: ( Old SSD )

Somehow if i open cmd, i get by default to C: ( but this system I'm accessing is on F . When I type bcdedit this is what it returns

Is there a way to edit bcdedit from this old SSD windows? I suspect not because I'm not in the same system where I run the command in the 1st place.

My last idea was to retrieve the password thanks to this computer since it's a cloned OS they should have the same password obviously. However, I found that getting the password is harder than I imagined . Is there any way to do this?

So to resume my questions

1. Is there a way to force Windows on normal once you wrote bcdedit/set safeboot minimal on CMD?
2. If not is there a way to edit bcedit from another OS system ( old cloned version?)
3. If not , is there a simple way to read my administrator passwords.
4. Any suggestion besides formatting?

Thanks,

Safe Mode won't accept correct password

I'm trying to run a third party software (AVG Internet Security) cleanup file that recommends Safe Mode. Yet, when I get to the Safe Mode lock screen, it won't accept my password (note that I am entering the password, not the PIN - it's the same password that gets me into my Microsoft account). Any suggestions what I should try? I'm hesitant to run the cleanup file in full Windows since it's not recommended.

 

Cannot Enter Safe Mode / Computer boots normally

I'm running Win 10 Pro 1903.

Here are the steps I have taken to get into safe mode: Start button, settings, update and security, recovery, advanced startup, troubleshoot, advanced options, startup settings, restart. The computer boots normally, not in safe mode. Any suggestions would be most helpful. Thanks in advance for your help and interest. .
