    Startup Repair refuses to take any password


    Hello! I've been trying to diagnose frequent bluescreening via Driver Verifier, and somewhat expectedly turning it on has resulted in a boot loop where the computer bluescreens almost immediately during booting. I can get to the startup repair screen, and in theory I could go from there to a command line to turn off Driver Verifier and exit the boot loop, but the startup repair tool will not accept any password I throw at it, full stop. Is there anything I can do to get around this requirement, or remotely reset the password, or something? Without being able to log in and access a command line

    :)

    admin password?

    You can reset the Admin Password using Windows XP repair; See Here for step by step.

  3. 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.
