So i've been dealing with this issue for a while, and after googling around, I really couldn't find a more up to date answer or solution to the problem.
When hitting the power button and waiting for my typical log in screen and password prompt, I stopped getting the ability to enter my password. I figured restarting would fix the problem in the beginning because it was probably a one off thing. And restarting works. But it keeps happening and still happens to me even now.
So restarting still works, but I also wanted to see if I could remove the password entirely and just have it automatically log me in as I was the only account on the PC i'm currently running now. But what happened when I removed the password was that it would boot me in to a blank screen with just the background image that i selected for my background log in. No password prompt, no user name or image.
It's at a point where i'm just kinda annoyed having to restart every single time I first boot up my computer. I also tried to add my password back, but for some reason, in settings > accounts > sign in options, the sign in options won't even load after 5 minutes so I'm not sure if that is another issue.
I'm currently running Windows 10 Home build 14393. Somewhere I read that the issue was resolved in build 10158.
