So i didn't like the fact that i had to log in with my password when turning on my pc, so I googled how to disable it and I disabled logging in alltogether. So now when i start my pc I can't log in I'm stuck on the landscape part and where it tells the time. Is there anyway to revert this or do i just have to reset my pc completely. Thanks

Normally playing with netplwiz normally gets you past that screen, obviously something is wrong

does the landscape screen show the power button to turn PC off?
if so, click it and open menu showing the 3 options
holding shift key down, click restart now

this should load windows into a blue menu
try running start up repair -
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up repair - this will scan PC and maybe fix this - will ask for logon info


other option is try to load into safe mode:
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up options
hit the restart button
choose a safe mode (it doesn't matter which) by using number associated with it.
Pc will restart and load safe mode

often just loading into safe mode can fix...

if you cannot access the power button on that screen, on another PC, download the Windows 10 media creation tool and use it to make a win 10 installer on USB
change boot order so USB is first, hdd second
boot from installer
on screen after languages, choose repair this pc, not install.
this takes you to the blue menu I mention above, try start up repair and safe mode and see if they help
