Windows 10: How can I change the initial pin number from 6 digits to 4 digits?

I set up my computer with a 4 digit pin. 2 weeks ago, a pop up said I needed to change my pin to 6 digits. How can I rest my pin to 4 digits?

Windows 10 asking for minimum 6 digit pin

Set the minimum requirements to 4 digits or not configured. Create a new local account. See if you can assign a 4 digit PIN to the new local account. If you actually try @lx07's advice and remove the PIN from your account (not just try to change it), and create a new PIN and the new account only requires 4 digits, and you account requires 6 digits, then you know it is a problem with your account.

I just tried it on my Windows 10 Pro 17134.228. Changed the minimum PIN requirement to 6 digits. Changed my PIN from one 4 digit PIN to another 4 digit PIN. Then I actually removed the PIN, and when creating a new one, it required 6 digits. Then I changed the PIN requirements to not configured. Tried to change the PIN, it would only take a 6 digit PIN. But, when I removed the PIN from the account and created a new PIN, it allowed 4 digits again.

over a year ago a message appeared at login, and I was using a 4 digit pin since day one of win10, that said something, forget exacts.. recommended changing pin to 6 digit so it could be encrypted for added protection.
