  1. Facial recognition and PIN issues


    I have just downloaded the latest windows 10 update but now my facial recognition says I need a PIN to set it up, but once I've logged in with my password the only possible option to log in now I go into account setting etc and am told my PIN is set up and working and facial recognition is set up!


    Why the hell is this so hard?


    Tell me how to make it work! Before I did the update, facial recognition worked fine but it always said my PIN was not working. Why won't they both work in conjunction?


    Why have a spent £900 on a laptop that makes logging in a massive chore?


    I cannot log in with facial recognition! Why not?


    My PIN does not work!


    I have to type my password in every time to log in.


    Please can you sort this issue out because if there is ever a problem with my password how will I log in?

    :)

    Hello Bill,

    We need to do further investigation on your concern so that we will know why the facial recognition quit working:

    • Have you recently made any changes/updates prior to this issue?
    • Is there an error message when you try to sign using facial recognition?
    • What is the make and model of your computer?

    In the meantime, I would suggest that you perform the troubleshooting steps in this
    article.

    We will wait for your response.

    Regards.
