Can't login because of Windows 10 Bluetooth Security Tag

One day my old USB Bluetooth adapter started to work again when I deleted old Bluetooth drivers but when my Bluetooth started to work again this "Bluetooth Security Tag" came to login screen and I lost the ability to login with password. The login screen has "password" option, but its only for one of the users and that's very problematic because I can't use my own account at all. I can't change the account at "password" option. The other account is only option.

I want to disable this "Bluetooth Security Tag" feature and keep bluetooth. I tried to find help online, but all solutions I could find disables my bluetooth at the process so I want to get better solution to this problem.
