    Every few months I am forced to change my pin. How do I make this stop?


    I have a Windows 10, and every few months it makes me change my pin. This has happened over and over. I'll go to the lock screen to enter my pin, and it'll suddenly say "this organization requires that you change your pin" or something to that effect. How do I make this stop?

    Stop forcing us to use a dang pin.

    Already doing that but I want it to stop forcing me to enter a pin when I unlock my PC, is is flipping annoying. Microsoft shouldn't be forcing this on us. I want it to stop.

    It doesn't matter how many times that I remove the pin it still comes up "create a pin" when I unlock after a reboot. Come one
    I need this to stop not keep going. You are only offering temp solutions I need a perminate one apart from changing OS altogether.

    Forced to Change PIN

    I tried to log into my laptop and was forced to change my PIN because "my organization required" it. This is a personal computer and shouldn't being run by anyone else but me. I was happy with my previous PIN and would like to change it back but can't
    figure it out. Thanks for the help!

    Stop forcing us to use a dang pin.

    I think you are referring to BitLocker PIN, here are the steps you can take to remove BitLocker PIN.

    You must have administrative rights on your machines to execute this command and this requires a functioning TPM:

    1. Right click on the Start Button.
    2. Select either Windows PowerShell (Admin) or Command Prompt (Admin).
    3. Copy and paste the two commands (get rid of the quotes)

      "manage-bde -protectors -delete C: -Type TPMAndPIN"

      "manage-bde -protectors -add C: -TPM"
    4. Reboot to ensure the PIN is no longer active.
