  1. Forgot PIN and "forgot my PIN" function isnt working


    So, I haven't used my PC in a while, and I forgot my PIN. Upon clicking the forgot PIN link just below, I am asked to sign into my Microsoft account. However, even when I enter my credentials correctly for my account, it still just says that I can't sign in right now or that an error has occurred. What can I do to get into my PC? I am on Windows 10.Thanks.

    :)

  2. Windows 11 forgot PIN

    I forgot my pin-Accounts-PIN-I forgot my PIN-I click it, enter my password, I get a code sent to my phone but I'm not given enough time to get the code and then enter it. I get kicked back to Accounts-Sign-in options screen. Any suggestions?

    If you forgot the PIN, you have no choice but to hard reset the phone and start from scratch. You can't bypass the PIN. If you could, there would be no point to the PIN.

    I forgot my PIN.

    I always use Face Recognition to open my Surface so I forgot my PIN. Today it did not work and keeps asking for my PIN. I forgot my PIN. So I cannot open my surface.

    What can I do?
