Safe Mode Trap

Windows 10 has this pin feature to allow you to use your microsoft account and still sue a simple password without worry.

But one day, when I booted up my computer, my ssd would go to 100% usage around 10 mins each time I booted up, rendering my computer completely useless.

So I boot into safe mode to see if this wan't a software problem, but when I booted up safe mode, I found that it asks for a password, not a pin. So i put in my pin, nope. Then I put in my Microsoft password, nope. I put in everything I could think of, nope.

I am stuck at this screen with no way to ask to reset password or EXIT SAFE MODE, so am <<Language, please.>>?

if you are using you MS account then it will be whatever pw your MS account was setup with, if you setup a local account then it would be that pw. the PIN is only for convenience but i never tried it. if you cannot remember your pw and it doesn't work in normal or safe mode then there is no choice but to backup and reinstall windows

as i said, i put in everything i could think of, including my microsoft pw, and i set up no local account. and it works fine in normal mode, the problem is that i cannot exit safe mode without entering this non-existent password.
