Pavilion 15-cw0996na
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Installed Avast and removed Mcafee.

 

Restarted my computer.

 

Cannot enter any password. The Password screen is just stuck even after pressing any button.

 

1. Tried Hard Reset - Did not Work

2. Tried Safe Mode - Once I chose safe mode, the system asks for password again but it wont let me enter any password.

 

This laptop is 2 days old, I am not sure what I did to break it already.

Thank you for joining HP Forums. 

This is a great place to get support, find answers to your technical queries.

 

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

Did try using the on-screen keyboard?

Did you try with the alternate keyboard?

 

Use onscreen keyboard under Ease of access on the login page.

 

If the issue persists, click on this link: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c04742289 Reset Your Computer.

 

Keep me posted, how it goes!
