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.

Okay so I just did the same and ofcourse it worked. I remember when I opened my laptop this morning, windows wanted me to change my PIN code and it was saying something related to my organization(school). I didn't read the whole message tho, but I was like "umm what do you mean my organization wants me to change my PIN?..."

2020-11-04T23:28:48+00:00 I did not have a work or school account listed. I actually had to add my work account, then remove it again. After I did this, I was given the ability to remove the PIN. What a horridly insidious feature.
