Win11 does not display the password input box after locking the screen. Please help.
After the computer locks the screen, the password input interface cannot pop up normally, making it impossible to unlock and enter the system. The only option is to force a restart.
Since you can't see the login box, you might still be able to log in. This is the first thing to try:
- Wake up your computer (move the mouse or press a key).
- Press the Tab key once. This should ensure the focus is on the password field (you just can't see it).
- Type your password carefully.
- Press Enter.
If you hear a sound or feel the computer react, it's working. If it logs you in, great! You can then proceed with the fixes below to prevent it from happening again. If not, continue with the other methods.
