    Accidentally 'Locked' my own Dell Laptop


    That's it. I accidentally clicked to lock my own laptop via MS account, thinking it was someone else's laptop.So, there is no unlock button.When I try to put my pin on that laptop, it says that the administrator has to login first. I tried to remove that laptop from MS account, then to register it again. With my laptop series number, it says it doesn't find it.I cannot understand how is it possible that there is a button to lock a device, via Microsoft account, without an unlock button, or a clear message stating that once you did it, there's no way back.I even tried to restore my laptop via B
