I am unable to login into my computer (windows 10). I get the message “your pin is no longer available due to a change the security settings on this device. You can set up your pin again by going to settings/accounts/siding options.”  There are no other options for signing in. Does anyone know what to do to login?

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Windows Hello, lock screen and sign-in

Same here, ended up having to hold down Shift key as I clicked Restart from the power icon in corner of log in screen.  Then selected Reset PC/keep personal files.

    Thank you, Alessandro.

    But I do not understand how to reset my pin with just my email. I can't see any option in which they ask me for my email to confirm resetting of pin.
