  1. Other User kinda fixed, locked in safe mode?


    I see his has ben asked a lot, and I've used the info I've found.

    I did a factory reset on my pc and afterwards came to a log in for "Other User". I did shift+reset, went into safe mode, got an admin account going. Seemed fine.

    However, when I tried to do the conventional way of getting out of safe mode, it didn't work. (Conventional being windows key+"R" then msconfig. By didn't work I mean safe boot was not checked thus there was nothing to uncheck.) Afterwards I tried to do the whole shift and reset thing again but hitting enter instead of 4, 4 being the key to go into safe mode and enter being how to start up windows normally. On top of this, I can no longer mess with the admin account other than logging in. The computer simply says whenever I try to run netplwiz or msconfig, "Device is not ready."


    Does anyone know how to fix this easy, or do I need outside materials such as a CD, usb, or computer source to get new things from?

    :)

  2. 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.

    Stuck in safe mode in windows 10

    Safe mode is intended to help fix most, if not all problems within an operating system, it's not good if we got stuck on it. To correct this, we suggest that you follow the steps below to exit out of Safe mode:

    • Open Run command by pressing Windows key + R
      keys on the keyboard and type msconfig in the command box and press
      Enter.
    • Under General tab, put a check on Normal Startup option.
    • Reboot the system and check if the changes are effective.

    Let us know if you are able to exit out of Safe mode with these steps.

    Boot into Safe Mode on Windows 10  


    I am stuck in Safe Mode in spite of following all the suggested steps to go back to Normal Startup - Like opening file location of msconfig.exe & running as Administrator. The computer I am trying to get out of safe mode has just been updated from Windows 7.
