  1. Can’t sign in to my surface


    I always used face recognition, it’s not working. A pin is required is what I get but it says my pin is no longer available due to changes to

    the setting and I forgot my password. Went to microsoft account and changed my password, tried that one and still nothing. All I see for the face recognition an other solutions need me to go to settings once I sign in. Any recommendations?

    :)

    Hello Jimmy, Can’t sign in to my surface :)

    This doesn't list the "Surface Laptop", but you might give it a try to see.

    Otherwise, you should be able to use OPTION ONE below to boot from the USB from advanced startup.
