Windows 10: Windows updated but won’t login & password box has disappeared

So I updated windows 10 and when it boots up to the login screen the password box has dissapeared but there’s still a login button. The login button doesn’t work & so I tried doing a shift restart to pull up the recovery environment screen. From there I tried every recovery troubleshoot option to no avail. Safemode won’t boot up, uninstalling the most reverting to an older version won’t boot up, resetting the computer won’t boot, & holding the hotkey for the bios won’t boot up the bios either. I haven’t found threads for the specific issue im having, from what I’ve seen reverting to an older version or logging in via safemode would fix the password box login issue except that my pc doesn’t want to boot up when I select either option from the recovery environment screen.

No password login box

Hi Helen,

There could be changes made with the settings on your computer that has disabled the option to have users to log in with a username and password. This should be enabled back to get again the login window.

If you're able to login to your system without using the password, please follow these steps to enable the login window during startup:

• Right-click the Windows key and select Run.
• In the Run field, type in control userpasswords2 and hit
  Enter.
• In the User Accounts dialog box, check the box for Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer.
• Click Apply, then OK.
• Restart your computer and see if you're prompted with the login window.

In case you can't login to your system, please boot your computer in Safe Mode. Check out the link,

Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10 and follow the steps in From the sign-in screen. Once you're in Safe Mode, follow the steps above to enable the password prompt. Once done, restart your computer to go back to normal mode.

Update us on how it goes so we can assist you further.

Regards.

Today without any reason the Bluetooth disappeared, and it won´t start anymore from the connections menu. Any clue where to start looking. Software V20, and no new update available.

 

After Windows 10 update, signin screen won`t accept my pssword.

Sign-in screen won`t take my password after Windows 10 update on a new HP laptop. I had setup a pin login but now asks for Microsoft password which I wrote down and have used before but will not accept now.
