  1. Everytime i want to reset my PIN i get an error message


    Dear Microsoft SupportI’m currently unable to access my Windows PC. Every time I attempt to set up a new PIN during the login process, I’m asked to verify my identity via an alternate email. I receive the verification code, enter it correctly – but then I get the following error message:"Es ist ein Problem aufgetreten – Ihre PIN konnte nicht eingerichtet werden."There was a problem – your PIN could not be set up.This error appears repeatedly, and I’m completely locked out of my PC.I’ve already tried to get help via the support chat and hotline, but I keep getting responses from automated sys

  3. Windows Update Error Message 0x80070543


    Ya Ya Ya, there's over a hundred threads like this, ...

    Anyway, started getting this error message a few days ago, and done a lot of searching on this error message, apparently it's not, uncommon.

    In particular, the (currently) 4 updates that are being affected are:
    • Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3173428) - Error 0x80070543
    • Security Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3172729) - Error 0x80070543
    • Security Update for Adobe Flash Player for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3174060) - Error 0x80070543
    • Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 (KB3176493) - Error 0x80070543

    The actions I've taken to date are:
    1. Uninstalled firewall program (comodo)
    2. Uninstalled anti-virus (Avast)
    3. Reset the windows update catalog on local machine.

    So the above errors are with the above done.

    What other steps should I be taking to resolve the issue?

    Below is notations for when I actually add to this thread.


    1. Attempted to use the troubleshooter, no dice.

  4. Everytime i want to reset my PIN i get an error message

    Forgotten PIN and expired password

    Hi Dyari,

    Thanks for your answer.

    I tried steps of both links:

    • #1: reset PIN code
      • I see no link "reset your PIN"on login page --> I can't reset it
    • #2: change or reset windows password
      • My Windows account is not displayed at all on login page.
      • I am using a local account
    If you have any other suggestion, I would be more than happy to try.

    Regards,

    Guillaume
