  1. Windows 10 - Can't login into desktop


    Hey, so my brother was using his PC for a while and then put it into sleep mode.
    After approximately 1 hour he comes back to the computer only to find out he cannot login, "incorrect password".

    He NEVER HAD A PASSWORD for his computer, there is only a "login" button and once you press it displays "incorrect password".

    Tried to boot into safe mode, no luck either it still says wrong password.

    Can't seem to find any solution on the internet AT ALL. Please help.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. Windows 10 Login Crash Loop

    Hi David,



    • Which screen are you referring to?
    • Are you able to login to Desktop?
    • Are you able to see the login screen?


    The power icon referred in the steps is present at the login screen. If you are able to see the login screen where you enter the password to go to Desktop, then you need to follow those steps. These steps to be followed if you are able to reach to
    login screen but unable to go to Desktop.



    Please provide us more information related to the issue so that we can assist you further.
