Here's an update. After I sent the previous message with details about using the opensuse rescue CD software, I realized that maybe I could make the Supergrub2 software bootable on the USB stick, so that is what I did. I used the USB stick with the bootable Supergrub software to boot into my opensuse 15.2 system located on my laptop's harddrive. I then opened Yast and ran the bootloader software, marking Set active Flag in Partition Table for Boot Partition I rebooted, and still have the issue where the password dialogue box presents, then I have to save bios settings and exit. It won't boot into the installed opensuse system unless I use the hot key to go to boot options menu when the bios starts to boot, and then select the USB stick with the bootable Supergrub2 software on the next screen after the password screen. Once the Supergrub menu presents, I can select and boot my opensuse system, but not Windows.
I would try the openSUSE rescue image.
