![]() To clarify, this isn't a 'How do I bypass the account' issue, rather a 'How do I make the screen itself functional again' one I don't want to do anything that could compromise my local profile itself, and I've got my passwords to both my local AND my Microsoft account safely written down, it's just my computer won't even offer a way to put in EITHER unless there's some secret, less-shiny safe-mode login page I can access (?). Tried using my W10 USB to 'upgrade'/repair my Drive 0, hoping that might roll it back, but it told me it couldn't do that from a USB install for some reason? Don't have a System Restore point to jump back to, so that was out.
