Hi,I recently forgot my windows pin password and I wanted to reset it but it says (This option is currently unavailable) and when I press the button where it says Tap or click here to fix it,it gives me this error.This causes a bit of problem for the Microsoft word and it says I need to sign in again and I did until it asked for the pin which I forgot.How can I fix this so I can turn it back to normal where there are no windows hello and I can reset the pin again.I appreciate any suggestions, thank you.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
You weren't much help here. You posted info for fingerprint login problems but people are asking for help with their PIN. I can't do anything on this computer now because I don't know the PIN and I am locked out from changing it. If you have a heart, re-post the proper procedure!!

This works and I have tested it
I had exactly the same issue. Check if you have not other Microsoft Accounts connected.

This one works definitely and is really simple. Saves you all the trouble of “Pin”
Thank you Miguel! That worked even better than the Microsoft reps suggestions that I tried following on another thread :)
