Hi,
I am trying to sign into my laptop as normal, but it says my password has been entered incorrectly so I have to enter the challenge phrase A1B2C3 and then my password. I know my password is correct but it keeps locking me out saying it is incorrect. I've followed Windows 11 tutorials to fix login issues but none mention the challenge phrase, which seems to be our issue.

When the message like for example (A1B2C3) requests you to inter the chalange phrase.
Just type the same combination exactly as appears on the screen (A1B2C3 in this case)
The screen will get you to the pin or password original screen
Just type your pin or password as usual and it work and you will be logged in.
