    Changing back my signin option to a password on windows 10


    So basically I had read the reply you had given to someone when they asked the same question but you had given them the option to remove the PIN which I do not have. Is there any other way I can change back to that without removing the PIN?

    :)

    Windows 10 Password change

    I am trying to change the password of my standalone Windows 10 PC.

    If I use the change account settings / signin options/ Password I get a message saying:

    "Something went wrong"

    Great

    If I try the Ctrl Alt Del option the password change option is not displayed
