    After installing 1709, locked out


    On reboot, get logon banner with my username above it, after clicking on it I get the word, "locking" across the screen and go back to logon banner.
    I do not use a password and I installed the upgrade from a dvd.

    Using restart + shift key I get into a repair screen. Tried a couple of things without not working.
    Got into safe mode and same thing happens.

    Now confused !!

    Hi Ken.

    If you hold shift and click restart please enter the Advance Startup options. You will see in tutorial there is an option to Go back to previous build.
