at the login screen it should be the username and password you set up during the installation process

Using Kali in livemode?
Kali in live mode will be running as user kali password kali. No more root/toor. After all these years.. :D If you have really forgotten your login/password Never mind. It's happened to most of them already. Especially if you have not used Klai for a long time. I know myself at least 2 people who have admitted it. Try to remember- if impossible- reinstall and try it again.

"Throughout the history of Kali (and its predecessors BackTrack, WHAX, and Whoppix), the default credentials have been root/toor. This is no more. We are no longer using the superuser account, root, as default in Kali 2020.1. The default user account is now a standard, unprivileged user."
