    Help - Password won't work after Safe Boot


    I've been having trouble with 100% disc usage so I followed the stupid advice of some video and re-started my Windows 10 laptop in Safe Boot. Now my laptop won't accept my password. I tried my Microsoft password as well and that doesn't work, and now I can't get into my computer at all. I'm really sick of this. I'm not an IT person, and I feel like ditching Windows altogether and going to Mac. In the meantime, if someone can help me in regular human speech and not PhD in computer science speech, that would be great. I'm ready to throw this computer out a tenth story window.

    :)

    Password safe: Start your safe and simplified digital life.

    Well some days ago our forum hacked.
    Admins suggest us to reset our passwords. Many of us are members to other forums/sites also.
    Password safe is a good utility which helps to maintain multiple passwords. Download it here and enjoy!

    New FF - passwords

    Hi:

    If that setting is already enabled, then I suggest as the next troubleshooting step might be Mozilla Safe Mode (not to be confused with Windows Safe Mode)):

    Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode | Firefox Help


    • Please report back and let us know the outcome, as it will dictate the next steps.
    • Also: please tell us what AV/AM/firewall programs are you running on this system?

    Thanks,
    MM
