Windows 10: Forgot Windows 11 Pin and Rest Pin Wizard reports Something Went Wrong

I forgot my Windows 11 pin. The I forgot my pin link starts the Microsoft account wizard but fails. The Wizard screen says, "Something went wrong. Try again, or select Cancel to set up your device later.I am also unable to get the ThinkPad X1 laptop to start in Windows safe mode when pressing Shift+Restart or by using the power button to stop the reboot at the Lenovo screen.

Forgot pin on windows 11

Hi,

I have forgotten my pin on my Windows 11 laptop. I am not signed in. The instructions on windows support are the following:

• If you don't see I forgot my PIN, select Sign-in options and then select Enter your password.
  

But I don't have the Sign-in options link. I think I have tried to enter my pin too many times and now I need to enter a security question, (A1B2C3). I enter the security question but can't get past this point. Is there anyway around this?

Thanks

Dan.

 

Can't create pin for login. Pin stopped working

Try the steps here:

• Navigate to PC Settings -> Accounts -> Sign-in options. Click on I forgot my PIN link.
• Next, click on the Continue button in the Are you sure you forgot your PIN? screen.
• You can now add a new PIN and click OK.
