    Startup repair password


    I need to use startup repair on a crashed hard drive but I don’t know what password to use. My Microsoft account uses passwordless sign in and I don’t remember ever making a local password for the account on the PC. What password do I need to use and is there a way I can find it on another device?

    :)

    Windows Startup password

    Is it possible to remove a startup password without being able to log into the system? A friend's laptop just prompt her today for a password that she never enabled. Now, she does have a standard user account password, but that doesn't work for the startup password. She had the computer for about a year now and it has never asked for a startup password until today.

    I tried to use Hiren Boot CD to run a diagnostic on the laptop, but it has a bsod. Windows 10 normal boot crashes as well

    Windows 10 Password for Startup Repair

    Hi,

    Startup repair keeps on rejecting my windows 10 password and I am very sure it is my correct password as I use it in logging in to microsoft website. I have two step verification on. Does that affect the password? I tried generate app password but still
    not working.
