Windows 10: Pin and PW not working , computer in airplane mode

I have read EVERY thread and tried every tutorial given by Microsoft on them amd I cannot get into my computer.


Left for a meeting and it was updating

-Come back and it says "Something happened and your pin isnt available. Click to set up your pin again"

-click setup pin again amd it says I need to download an app from the app store, click yes. Pop up flashes off and we are back to sign in screen.

-go to sign in with password, tells me password is wrong.... it's the same as it's been for years. Try it a dozen times making sure caps is off etc. No dice

-click forgot my pw, says just a moment and flashes back to sign in screen

-go on my phone and sign into my Microsoft account (so clearly the pw was right....) change pw

-still cannot sign in and realize the comp isndisplaying airplane mode w no other option. I have a hardwired fiber line not wifi.

-unplug ethernet replay after restart etc etc

-tried every advanced option scenario and ALL of them ask for pw at some pt

-tried boot media repair comp, ASKS FOR PW

-tried boot media command prompt since advanced options wont do cp without password, none of the tutorials work all the resets say access denied


I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO


I cant do anything about my pw since it's in airplane mode and I CANNOT wipe this computer i have tons of files i cannot lose.


This is insane. Please HELP ME

How to disable Airplane mode permanently on Windows 10?

Hi Hunky,

As you are facing issues with turning on or off Airplane on your device, do not worry we will help you with this issue.

Do let us know if you have made any changes to the operating system prior to this issue?

The option you are looking for to permanently disable Airplane mode is unfortunately not available.

Let us try few of the below troubleshooting steps to disable Airplane mode and check if it helps.

Step 1: To turn off Airplane mode from Settings and check.

• Press Windows key, click on Settings
  from the left pane.
• Click on Network & Internet.
• Under Airplane mode turn it off and check.

Step 2: To Turn On or Off Airplane Mode in Network Notification Area Icon

• 
  Click on the Network icon in the taskbar notification area.
  
• 
  Click on the Airplane mode button to toggle on or off.
  

Step 3: To Turn On or Off Airplane Mode in Action Center

• 
  Open Action Center by clicking Windows + A keys from keyboard.
  
• 
  Click on the Airplane mode quick action button to toggle on or off.
  

If the settings are not refining, this issue might have occurred due to corrupted/ missing system files.

Step 4: I suggest you to run SFC scan and check if it helps.

System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files. If a
Windows Resource Protection (WRP) file is missing or is corrupted, Windows may not behave as expected.

Follow the below steps:

• Right click on the Start button, click on
  Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type “sfc /scannow” without the quotes and hit
  Enter.
• After the scan, restart the computer and check for the issue.

Hope it helps. Reply to the post with updated status of disabling the Airplane mode for further assistance.

Thank you.

 

Airplane mode switch not working

My Windows 10 laptop is stuck in airplane mode. When I go into settings and turn airplane mode off, my computer immediately turns it back on.

Things I've tried that didn't work:

• Restarting my computer
• Turning on Wi-Fi
• Checking the wireless network adapter
• Restarting Windows Explorer

My computer is a Dell Inspiron 15, if that helps.

Does anyone have a fix for this?
