    Can't turn off "your organization requires you to change your PIN" in Windows 10


    Greetings,During the pandemic I had my home computer linked to my work account so I could access my employer's Microsoft tools. I had to change my PIN every 3 months based on their restrictions.When I started another job, I disconnected my work account which was disabled at their end anyway. However, 3 months later like clockwork, it asked me to change my PIN. The work account is gone.I've poked around all the solutions on the web - looking in the Registry, particularly disabling the PIN settings in the Group Policy Editor etc. Nothing works. The next step is to close my personal Micros

    :)

  2. Organization requires changing PIN

    I am currently having an issue with being forced to change my pin. The prompt states that it is my organization that requires this. This is my personal computer and I am the only user on it. I have tried the solutions on other questions, but none of them
    have worked. I cannot find the setting to change this anywhere on my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    "your organization requires you to change your pin" and "*Some of these settings are hidden or managed by your organization"

    This is the 2nd time this happened and now it's back. This is all on my personal laptop. Windows uses my personal microsoft account

    First time it happened (around July 22):

    About a month or two ago, I got the pin change message. I was confused because my organization should not be accessing any of my Windows account. That said, MS Office 365 is associated with my University's outlook account. Not sure if it matters,
    but my uni is based in London. My PC (and me) are in USA.

    I change my pin and immediately after, my PC starts doing a full windows reset with everything wiped.

    O had to contact Microsoft chat support a few times. Ultimately, they had to reinstall windows and promised it'd not happen again.

    This time (Tues, Sept. 1)

    I log in with my pin and I get the "your organization requires you to change your pin" today.

    Recent events that happened:

    1) I paired my bluetooth headphones to my computer today. (i connected fine but this is where I saw "*Some of these settings are hidden or managed by your organization"

    2) I earlier contacted MS Support Sunday about OneDrive creating an empty duplicate folder (minor issue that I didnt finish fixing yet).

    I am not changing my pin because I'm afraid it will reset my computer again and I don't want to do that. I don't want the support agent messing around and going through the whole reinstalling windows solutions because it seems to be coming back anyway.

    What I tried so far:

    • I tried Andre's response on
      this thread
      . I failed because option 1) the NGC folder I got a message saying I don't have access to it and it says "you do not have permissions to view this object's security properties, even as an administraor", and option 2) when switching to a local
      account and back, I log out back in & again it says I need my organization requires a new pin (i.e. doesnt fix the problem)
    • I also tried a handful of GP edit suggestions from other threads here. None worked.
    • I also tried this Mike P's suggestion
      here
      (accidentally misreading password as pin)

    I'm hoping I can get this resolved because it seems like the full windows reinstallation did not even work. (I'm guessing because the reinstallation of my MS Office or my OneDrive account is the cause??)

    I know a Rubiks cube is prob easier to solve but can anyone help with this?

  4. Can't turn off "your organization requires you to change your PIN" in Windows 10

    Organization changing Windows Hello PIN settings

    I have been signing on to my laptop (running Windows 10) with a PIN for a year, but after I installed Microsoft Office through my university, it forced me to change my PIN to something overly complex, saying my organization required it. Now when I try
    to change/re-enable my PIN, it says Windows Hello is unavailable. I suspect it has something to do with the fact that when I installed Office through my university, it asked me if I would allow my organization to change settings on my device, and I allowed
    it. I want to undo this, because it's driving me crazy, but can't figure out how. I've already tried disabling 'Use Windows Hello For Business' in the local group policy editor, which doesn't seem to have done anything at all. How can I revoke an organization's
    control over my laptop's settings?
