I am unable to set-up a new PIN as it asks for a security code to be sent on a number I no longer have. I just updated my number on microsoft accounts and it says will take 30 days before it takes effect. Now I can't even log into my laptop. No option for password login or to change to a local account. Someone HELP!!!

    I have the same issue after a bios update. No internet access and Microsoft have not sent out the verify code to input. I've borrowed a laptop to get online and checked my online email and no email from Microsoft. This is a new pc with new bios and will have regular updates. I cannot afford this type of hassle. Microsofts answer when speaking to TECH, CLEAN INSTALL.

    It's taken me six weeks to install software to this point, I don't have the time to waste to start again. It's all this TPM rubbish.

    The only answer if I get ack in is to have no pin and or no password! Not impressed and reinstall appears to be the only answer Microsoft have to any issue.

    I reset the computer again and was able to establish a new pin.
