  1. PIN Issue


    I am logged into an Outlook account on my laptop...which is my 'main' account. I have both a Yahoo and Google account on the laptop as well. I've had them for many years and set up the pin...but can't remember what it was.


    When I try to follow the prompt after clicking "forgot pin" it just tries to make me change the one for my Outlook. There isn't a way to switch accounts once following the prompt, I even went as far as to change my pin hoping it would work.


    I've been trying for years now to change the pin so I can use my account to the fullest but nothing has changed. I still have no idea how to change my two pins while leaving my Outlook account alone. I've tried on my phone as well as our desktop and I always run into the same issue. Am I going to need to sign out of my main account just to be able to change my pin?

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Clear "Pin suggested" list in People Bar

    Does anybody know how to clear the "Pin suggested" list on the "People bar"?

    Contacts are added to the "Pin suggested" list once you've pinned and unpinned them. But there seems to be no obvious way to remove them from that list.

    After playing around with this feature and pinning and unpinning many dummy contacts, it's rather annoying to see them in the "Pin suggested" list when you click on the "My People" icon in the taskbar.
