    Windows 10 pro, pc rebooted into safe mode and accepts password the rejects it.


    Rebooted pc to remove ATI drivers before new driver install.


    But for some unknown reason windows accepts password only to rejected it a few seconds later.

    Unable to get into command prompt or anything that requires admin access.


    Unable to activate admin login, due to rmthe above issue.


    Booting of usb, doesn't seem to help as c drive become o drive and tools fail to see the windows install of images.

    Windows 10 safe mode doesn't accept my password.

    I restarted to windows 10 safe mode. Was asked for password , entered and it didn't accept. Controlled a few times , still it is rejected .

    I'm not entering the pin number, I'm entering the correct password for my outlook account. Windows 10 Normal mode accepts this password.

    So, what maybe the problem?

    Password not accepted in Safe mode

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

    Have you tried all the above steps suggested by Sangeeta Sarkar on September 13, 2015.

    I would suggest you to provide some information to help you better.

    • Are you trying to login the Microsoft account or the Local account in safe mode?
    • Did you try with only safe mode or safe mode with networking?
    • What is the critical error you are getting?

    If you are using Windows 10. To go to safe mode you have to follow the below steps.

    If you are able to go to login screen in normal mode try the below steps to go to safe mode with networking.


    • At the login screen click on the power symbol.

    • Hold SHIFT + Click Restart.

    • After restarting your system, select the Troubleshoot option.

    • Select advanced options under
      Troubleshoot screen.

    • Click on Startup Settings.

    • Click Restart and follow the onscreen steps to go to
      Safe Mode with networking and check if you are able to login.

    [*]
    Please get back with more information, we will be glad to help you further.
