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.

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

    I have just the same issue on Windows 10 Home version 1909. It worked for a long time. We talking about the PIN code.

    Any idea to solve ?

    This link is for fingerprint recognition, not pin.

    This was an absolute waste of my time. I have a PC, not a laptop. I want to turn on Windows Hello so that I can use a PIN, which the computer repeatedly asks for. Would someone actually answer the question?
