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.

    You need to change the one that says value in the left column and DWORD in the column to the right of that. In saying this though I tried it and it didn't work from me

    It is the bottom one that says value in the left column and is of type DWORD as indicated in the column second from the right but when I did it it didn't work any but its worth a shot
