    "Password is incorrect"


    Hello,My password is 100% correct, I can check it using the eye icon on the right of where you type it in. But it still says "password incorrect". Normally it would unlock as soon as I typed in the full password, but now even after pressing enter it says it's incorrect.This is a local password, and the only password I've ever used locally. I can't reset my microsoft account password, and I can't even check which Microsoft account it used to be linked to. I've tried safe mode, I've tried resetting many times, nothing is working.I really need access to my files, I have assignments due and unfort

    Password incorrect

    How do I get out of safe mode so I can reset my settings?

    1. Press Windows + R keys to open Run command.
    2. Type msconfig and press Enter.
    3. In the window, click on Boot tab.
    4. uncheck Safe boot, click on Apply and Ok. Restart
    Not sure why it started in Safe mode. May have been out of sync with your phone from prev incorrect password. See if restart fixes. At least, you know what your universal MS password is. *Wink
