Windows 10: Startup Repair not taking password after I reset it

Hello, I'm in a situation where windows is not loading correctly, so I went to start up repair to fix it. I did not remember my password, so I reset it online my Windows is tied to a Microsoft account so its not a local only user. After resetting it, it still won't accept my password. Is there any way to fix that, or another way to fix my windows if that can't be fixed? Thanks!!

  Insert installation media and restart the computer.

  Select language and click on Next.

  Select Repair your Computer and click on Skip this drive.

  Select Troubleshoot and click on Advanced Options.

  Here choose the option Automatic Repair and follow the prompted instructions.
  

Now if you are able to boot to the desktop then try resetting the password.
