| Jun 10, 2019 at 18:26 | comment | added | Scott - Слава Україні | Steve Martin had a comedy bit called “How to be a millionaire and not pay taxes”. It went “Step 1: Get a million dollars. Step 2: Don’t pay taxes.” (And there was a bit more.) The fact that the ‘‘known good’’ password is not working is part of the question, so telling the OP to “figure out what’s wrong”, without giving any hints or avenues to investigate, doesn’t seem to be very helpful. If you’re just saying that they should do more research before posting a question, then say that. | |

Figure out what's wrong with the username or password so you can get logged back in. Enabling this mode doesn't result in good passwords being rejected. | |
