After Booting to Safe Mode, there is no way to login -- Suggestions??
Boggin:
I don't use passwords on my machines but I don't think you do get the option to login in that mode.
The reason your screen looks different is because in that mode it uses the onboard VGA graphics and not your normal GPU.
In that mode, Windows disables audio.
From Win 8/8.1 onwards, in that mode Windows disables wireless so you would normally Ethernet connect.
However, if it isn't practical for you to Ethernet connect, you can manually connect to your SSID.
When you get to the desktop in that mode, press CTRL ALT DEL then click on the wireless icon then on your SSID and then on Connect.
When it has connected, left click away from that pane to clear it then click on Cancel where you will then see a normal wireless icon.
You can then start the Windows Repair program.

Alt/Ctl/Del doesn't work I'm just stuck with the mouse on an empty screen except for the globe for the Internet which won't connect, the middle icon, which has Narrator, Magnifier, On-Screen Keyboard, High Contrast, Sticky Keys and Filter and the right icon which is to shut down or restart. The keyboard feature brings up a keyboard but nothing happens when you click on any of the keys.
Not certain if there are any other options. I have no way of connecting with a cable. I can only do wireless.
Boggin:
Well that sounds as if your system is corrupt and I would suggest you perform a Reset which will retain your personal stuff but will remove all installed programs.
In normal mode, press and hold SHIFT throughout a Restart - click on Troubleshoot where you will then see the option to Reset which when done will hopefully reinstate the Recovery partition.
However, you may need to perform a full reset which will remove everything which would require you to back up your personal stuff first.

I've just been having another look at the version of Win 10 that you say you are on.
On checking that, I've found it is part of the Insider's build release.
The official general release is 1903 18362.267
As this build seems to have taken out what you should get in Safe Mode with Networking then I think you should disregard what I've suggested about a reset and notify Microsoft about this.
The Windows Repair program should only be run on general release versions of Win 10 as the Permissions change with each update and is why Shane needs to update the program after each official update.
RochesterChuck:
Thank you! I'll report this to MS! Have a SUPER day!
