GUI password and username not working

I type in the default user and pass (which I haven’t changed) and it takes me to command line and shows me a small blinking line and then it goes back to the login.

Hm, maybe it's not about the pasword at all but the graphical session can not open for some other reason.

The blinking line in the top left corner of the screen?

The gui you are talking about is the RaspberryPiOS desktop. The password is the same as the ssh user/password of pi/raspberry. If it goes to the blinking cursor then back to the login prompt, that is an issue with the desktop itself having an issue. Have you ssh'd in and run "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt full-upgrade -y"? If not, run those. It will update the RaspberryPiOS and could correct issues with the desktop install.

Keyboard issue because the standard OS's layout is english where Z and Y are swapped. Tripped me up for 3-4 tries =)
