Windows Hello PIN Something went wrong. Try again later

I've had my PIN set up for quite some time and all the sudden I received a message that said my organization requires me to update my pin.  This is a personal computer, it does not belong to any organization.  Under the sign in options, Windows Hello Pin, I see a message that says Something went wrong. Try again later.  I removed my PIN and now Add is greyed out.  This PC has no group policy, it's my personal computer so I don't know what went wrong, but I would like to have my PIN back.  Any help would be appreciated.

    I tried the Method 1 above, And it said I did not have sufficient rights. This is a New Surface Book 3. I am very frustrated. I did an update yesterday, and I have been messing with this machine all morning to get it to work. Can I talk to someone that can step me through getting this corrected?

    Also, I think it is Home addition. I would like to upgrade it to Professional version.

    I had a corrupted Win10 account and couldn't upgrade to the latest build.  So I did a fresh install and am now getting this error.  I didn't get it right after the upgrade but shortly after.  I am being prompted to setup a PIN every time I log in which is very annoying.

    I have tried Method 1 with not luck.  Method 2 doesn't apply.  Method 3 instructions are not complete.  Step 4 isn't clear as I have 6 lines and don't know what to change to 1.  Also to note is I do have 2 other user accounts and have a PIN setup with out issue.  So something has corrupted the PIN on this account.  Please provide other suggestions to resolve.

    I tried everything but none of them worked. I can not use or create a pin. 

    I used to have but something happened two weeks ago it might be an update issue.
