Windows 10: Help on "Something happened and your PIN is not available"!!!

So yesterday, I clean booted my laptop not knowing that the Hide all Microsoft services checkbox was unchecked. When the laptop restarted, message came that "Something happened and your PIN is not available". So I tried getting into the Windows Recovery but everything there is password protected and also there was no password in the laptop ever. Safe mode/Command Prompt/Networking/Reset/System Image Recovery is all locked behind the password. Is they anyway to get the Microsoft services get going. Can't reset all of the laptop because of my data inside it. What can I do with the password stuff

:)
