Pin not working after BIOS Update

Hello,

the PIN option is no longer working after updating the BIOS of my Gigabyte B150 HD3P Mainboard. I'm running Windows 10 Pro 64bit. (using current branch for business)

More Infos:

• restaring the machine didn't help (unsurprisingly)
• Picturecode login still works
• I've already set the grouppolicy to enable pin login
• In the loginoptions menu is shows me the possibility to add a pin
  
  Problem: When I click the button it asks for my old pin. I enter the old pin, the window just disappears.
  
  Problem2: Forgot Pin tells my to remove the pin with the button "remove pin" - this button is not visible

This basically deprives me of all options I know - apart from resetting everything - I certainly am not planing on doing that again...
