I'm unable to login to Ubuntu 24.04. When trying to login I get this screen.

Just installed 24.04 two times, the password is not accepted at subsequent login
the only working solution was to enter recovery mode and use passwd to set a new password.
This just happened to me ( Exactly the same as above when trying to login as xorg ) or if I tried normally you would end up in a continuous loop login I didnt want to re-install everything. The quickfix solution which worked for me was.
- reboot in safe mode
- enable network ( if you able to connect through ethernet cable)
- drop to the terminal
- apt install ubuntu-desktop task-gnome-desktop Then Reboot and then when login select not the Gnome desktop but your Ubuntu ( or xorg Ubuntu which ever you were using ) and your back to where you were before.. Why .... I have no idea
Just delete the user environment settings folder. rm .rf ~/.local
