    Interesting. File corruption perhaps. Did you do a hard reboot with the power button?

    It might be worth a try to see if you can just reset your password and try again. Maybe "reset" it to the same one you were using?

    There's a video at the bottom.

    This universe is crazy. I'm going back to my own.

    No hard reset. I have no idea how that happened, but I did find the tutorial very helpful and it is now reset. Thanks, i think it is justifiable to say I was kind of freaking out lol
