I was able to get to safe mode and had to sign in with that user name and password but it doesn't come up in normal mode and none of the recovery options have worked.
Is the account you are using (or attempting to use) a local account or a Microsoft account?
What is the "name" of the account, that is visible and usable in Safe Mode, that is not visible or usable in a normal boot?
I think, the first thing that I would try is....
Go back into safe mode and create a new local user account as a member of the local administrators group and see if I could use that account in a normal boot.
Right click the Start button and from the context menu select Command Prompt (Admin) and in the command prompt window type
net user JohnSmith /add
hit enter
then type
net localgroup administrators JohnSmith /add
hit enter
type
exit
hit enter
Restart and log in as JohnSmith
Obviously, you don't have to use "JohnSmith", it can be Tom, Dick or Sally. Since it is just a temporary account for testing and diagnostic purposes, it really doesn't matter.
