  1. How do I change my PIN if it says "Something went wrong. Try again later."?


    Hi. I have been struggling to find an answer on how to change my PIN. I keep going to Settings>Accounts>Sign-in options and looking at the different options, but my computer is telling me that "Something went wrong. Try again later." for every sign-in option available except for the security key one. Also, since my account is connected to my sign-in process, every time I enter my PIN number to sign in my computer is requiring me to sign-in a different way; either by email or phone. Each time it prompts me to sign-in a different way, I try to change my PIN number there, but it keeps telli

  2. Error 'Something went wrong. Try again later' with the pin code

    I have the same issue. Pin just stopped working after installing updates. Changed to requiring a password.

    The Sign-in Options page only shows "Add" under PIN. It would appear that the existing PIN has been deleted. Normally one would expect to see "Remove" as well as "Add" if the PIN existed.

    Trying to add a PIN just results in a grey screen popping up and then disappearing, with the message "Something went wrong. Try again later"

    How about telling us what went wrong? Oh you have no idea.

    How about telling us how much later? Oh you have no idea.

    I've trawled the 'net looking for an answer and most of the MS responses (such as this one) suggest removing and adding a PIN, or selecting "I've forgotten my PIN". If they actually bothered to read the requests then they would see the futility of their
    suggestions!

    Come on MS, FIX THE PROBLEM!

    How do I change my PIN if it says "Something went wrong. Try again later."?

    Win10/HP Pavillion - PIN "unavailable"

    Using Win10 on an HP Pavillion Gaming Laptop

    PIN went away. Now when I go into create a PIN I get "Something went wrong. Try again later". The step prior is: Start.>Settings>Accounts>Sign in Options>Windows Hello PIN and it reads "This options is currently unavailable - click to learn more". I
    followed the steps suggested, but they don't work

    Suggestions?.
