When I went to bed the other night I updated and shut down my computer. See it's been needing an update. But whenever I've tried to update it it will not reboot up. So I did the thing where I would unplug and wait till it uninstalled the updates. It would than go back to normal and tell me I need to update. So I thought that night I would try updating and shutting down. But no. It did not work because now it will reboot or go to blue screen asking to sign in. Which I do but it says wrong password. I've used this password many times signing in. So it's not wrong. And that's it. I can't go past either screen. I'm stuck. Please help!

None of these worked either. I've tried doing the downloading windows 10 to a USB drive but I don't have another one here that has windows 10 pro. I am really thankful you are helping me I am. Please know this.
None of these worked either.
Another option is a clean install. Boot the install media, delete / recreate partition then follow the prompts.
