    A fired employee did not leave their pin to sign in as required. As an Admin is it possible to change their pin so that I can access the files under their sign in? This is Windows 11.

    How to gain access to the WindowsApps folder?


    To gain write access you need to do two things:
    1. Change ownership (it should be "TrustedInstaller") to an admin account
    2. Grant that account write access

    I'm not sure if it works with every admin account or if you need the "real" admin account which is hidden. It can be revealed by entering the following command in elevated cmd: net user Administrator /active:yes (or active:no do hide it again).

    Remove an unknown PIN set by a former employee

    A former employee resigned without removing or leaving a list of account passwords as we had requested. Today, the office computer did an automatic update. When it restarted, it required a PIN to log in, with the former employee’s personal mobile phone set to get the recovery code. Now we cannot get past the PIN to open Windows. Is there a workaround?
