    I’m having trouble logging into my PC from Safe Mode; Windows 10


    Hey what’s up guys. I recently tried cleaning and scanning my PC from potential malware/adware. I seen a tutorial on YouTube that seemed like it legitimately worked. The process involved going into Safe Mode so that no malware/adware would load with the startup (which is what the video described.) After doing this, it prompted me to log in. I thought it was my PIN, which wasn’t working at all. I then discovered your PIN won’t work, it’s actuallly your Microsoft Password that’s needed. So I proceeded to enter my password multiple times, multiple different passwords and nothing was working. Which is very strange because I can log in with that same password on the Microsoft website and I know for a fact that’s my correct password. So now basically, I’m stuck, locked out of my PC with literally nothing I can do or think of. I’ve looked up that you need to download a file from the Microsoft media installation via USB, run a command prompt or something along those lines which is pretty confusing to me, I’m not big on PC software etc. Could someone thoroughly follow me with steps on what to do? Desperate need of help *cry thank you, any feedback at all will greatly be appreciated.

    :)

    Can't log-in to windows 10

    If you have recently changed your Microsoft password, we suggest that you try using your old password and check if you will be able to log in. We also recommend that you connect your computer to the internet while logging in.

    If the issue persists, let's start your PC in safe mode. Safe mode starts Windows in a basic state, using a limited set of files and drivers. For steps on how to start your PC in safe mode, refer to the following link:
    Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10.

    To isolate the cause of this issue, we would like to know the following information:

    • Are you using a Microsoft account or a local account on your computer?
    • What is the exact error message that you receive when logging in?

    Looking forward to your reply.

  3. Password not accepted in Safe mode

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

    Have you tried all the above steps suggested by Sangeeta Sarkar on September 13, 2015.

    I would suggest you to provide some information to help you better.

    • Are you trying to login the Microsoft account or the Local account in safe mode?
    • Did you try with only safe mode or safe mode with networking?
    • What is the critical error you are getting?

    If you are using Windows 10. To go to safe mode you have to follow the below steps.

    If you are able to go to login screen in normal mode try the below steps to go to safe mode with networking.


    • At the login screen click on the power symbol.

    • Hold SHIFT + Click Restart.

    • After restarting your system, select the Troubleshoot option.

    • Select advanced options under
      Troubleshoot screen.

    • Click on Startup Settings.

    • Click Restart and follow the onscreen steps to go to
      Safe Mode with networking and check if you are able to login.

    [*]
    Please get back with more information, we will be glad to help you further.
