Boot Loop. System doesn't recognize password

Anonymous

When starting, the automatic repair activates and sends me to advanced startup options.

If I restart or continue to Windows 10, it just goes into a loop and sends me back to startup options.

And if I choose any other advanced option, it asks me for my password but when I write it down it doesn't recognize it and says it's incorrect so I can't do anything.

And every solution I find on the internet requires me to use the advanced startup options, which I can't access because of the password, even though I used the same password to log in here without issue.

It's absolutely driving me insane. Please someone help me

    Is there any other option?

    Honestly, just a way to access the command prompt to deactivate the automatic repair or something like that would be all I need so I can move on to the OS

    I do not want to reinstall Windows or make a back up of my drive unless it's absolutely necessary. I just need to get pass the automatic repair

    Thank you

    Hello Miguel. I'm Greg, here to help you with this.

    If the password isn't working it often means the account is corrupted. If you can't use WinRe repair mode due to password then you'll need to create bootable media which doesn't require a password to do the necessary repairs, create a new Admin account to replace yours, do a Reset or a gold standard Clean Install. Everything possible to get Windows started is here:

    Feel free to ask back any questions. Based on the results you post back, I will have other suggestions if necessary.
