  1. Stuck in safe mode, passwords don’t work


    Tried to reboot into safemode using msconfig, and now I’m stuck in the safemode login with no way to get in. I tried restarting into safemode with networking, which doesn’t work with any of my passwords. I tried remembering my old Microsoft account passwords, with no luck. I can’t open the command log, as it requires my password, I can’t even reset my computer, as it needs my password. I don’t have any USB drives or anything. So my computers basically a useless brick now.

    Honestly, this shit has been an issue for years now and it’s unreal that Microsoft haven’t been able to fix this.

    stuck in safe mode, password NOT working

    After stupidly following instructions to go into safe mode to recall a secret file, (which now appears to be lost forever along with all my art), my Windows 10 PC is stuck in safe mode.

    It will NOT accept my password. Which I have changed 4 times now.

    The suggestion that Windows Icon + R may help, does NOT work.

    The suggestion that the Shift + Power Button, could help, does NOT work.

    The F2 or del suggestion on my ASUS that shows within seconds of rebooting, takes me to a blue screen, bios, which I know zero about and am haven't messed with.

    I need to get into the windows screen. Help?

    Stuck in safe mode in windows 10

    Safe mode is intended to help fix most, if not all problems within an operating system, it's not good if we got stuck on it. To correct this, we suggest that you follow the steps below to exit out of Safe mode:

    • Open Run command by pressing Windows key + R
      keys on the keyboard and type msconfig in the command box and press
      Enter.
    • Under General tab, put a check on Normal Startup option.
    • Reboot the system and check if the changes are effective.

    Let us know if you are able to exit out of Safe mode with these steps.

    Stuck in safe mode, passwords don’t work

    Stuck on Safe mode, no password.


    Today i launched DDU (Display driver uninstaller),
    And it brought my pc to "Safe-Mode" login screen.

    And when i typed my password , it said its incorrect.
    ( when i enter the local password on a system startup repair or something like that it works, but only at the win 10 safe-mode password bar its not working. Very strange.)

    How could this be possible? When like 2 hours ago i used to login with this password...

    Anyway..
    Im stuck on the "Safe-Mode" login screen.
    ( safe-mode loop )

    What i need to do?
    Tryed alot stuff from other topics and NONE helped .. please help me please.

    I have like 500 gb stored files. I hope i wont have to reset disk.

    If any one will help to me fix it.. big thanks to him...
