    How do I fix windows 10 stuck on home screen? I have tried holding shift and restarting, so it gives me all the safe mode options etc... I select any of the options and it brings me to a blue screen. It asks me to select an account, I select the only account that’s there and then NOTHING.

    :)

    Computer stuck at lock screen and after Anniversary Update on Windows 10

    The first suggestion is not helpful since the problem is that we have many open programs stuck behind the lock screen.

    I have run into this problem and tried the On-screen keyboard but it does not help.

    An additional data point is that it does not matter what password is entered.

    Enter correct password -> spinner shows up, after about 30 seconds the spinner goes away and the screen remains locked.

    Enter blank password (simply hit Enter) -> same behaviour as above.

    The behaviour is the same whether using physical or On-screen keyboards.
