After logging into my Mac, give about 30 seconds and I am sent back to the lock screen. This happens repeatedly. I’ve tried starting up in Safe Mode, resetting PRAM, and reinstalled the whole thing.
Got a tip for us?

macOS Mojave Sends Me Back to Login Screen

When you reinstalled, did you do a fresh install, or a simple reinstall, where the new files copy over the old ones?
Looks like you may have to do fresh install, as your system has a bug, and your reinstall didn't take care of it.
Just installed Mojave on a MacBook Air 11 2013 8GB and I was sent back to the lock screen 3 times, I did a clean install with [option - command - R] internet install. I'm going to continue installing the apps that I use more often and wait a couple of days to see if this occurs again, at least I'm not the only one having this problem.
I installed Mojave on a MacBook Pro 15 2015 16GB without any problem. Just the fonts look kind of blurry on the external display, specially with the News app...

/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/ and you’re good to go.

You mean Cmd+R when booting up, right?
How can i proceed from there? Never did this before and I‘m at work rn...
I also have razer headphones, and trying to go to the directory but I'm a total terminal newbie.
This is my terminal screen after trying to access the directory on the first line. Can't seem to use the right commands.
Would appreciate any help, been scratching my head tirelessly for many hours straight.
Thanks in advance.
[doublepost=1537873077][/doublepost]It's this file I guess that needs to be deleting. How do I write in terminal to delete it?

Same problem here and also got Razer Synapse installed. Curious if we can solve it trough the terminal!
This last line worked and problem solved!!

check my last post, change the /rmbp/ to whatever the name is on your HD, you can find it by opening the disc utility, if you want the exact line for your razer files in the folder, also use discutility, and by using one of the functions there, i dont remember which, probably restore from file, i was able to navigate through and find the contents of the HAL folder and locate the name of the razer files.

This community is amazing. I was having the same problem and this fixed it, with one difference. I didn't have any Razer plug-ins but I did have the "Hear.plugin", and when I deleted that the problem went away.
Hey Artakamoose, you save my day!! I need to register this account to thank you. I should find this community sooner! Thanks for sharing this. This works perfect !!
Hello all, thx for all your helps and postings here.
I have the same problem, but can‘t get it fixed. I think i‘m totaly noob but i dont know how to use the terminal...
My Razer Audio Plugin has the name „RazerKraken7.1Audio.plugin“ which i found out using the disk utility manager. But i cant see the full path of that file there so what should i write in terminal? I have only one HD...
terminal says always: No such file or directory
I think its totaly simple but i am biggest noob ever :-(
