    Login with PIN and Hello

    Hi Jean,

    Windows 10 includes multiple options to sign-in to your account, including the ability to sign-in using a PIN and Windows Hello, which uses facial recognition. For us to provide a solution suited to your concern, we need additional information. Can
    you answer the questions below?

    • How are you setting the PIN and Hello?
    • Which build version of Windows is your PC running on?
    • Were there any error codes or messages?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you follow the steps below on how to set up PIN.

    • Open Settings.
    • Select Accounts.
    • Click Sign-in options.
    • Click the Add button for the PIN and set your PIN.
    • Do the same for the Windows Hello.

    Looking forward to your response.

    Windows Hello and Pin sign on

    Hi I am having issues with windows hello and the pin creation. I have two scenarios both of which don't fully work.

    I turned on my PC and windows hello which was working perfectly said I need to set up a pin. I could not add a pin, every time I went to nothing would happen so I followed steps to delete the contents of the NGC folder as other forum posts reccomended. I
    can now set up a pin which works to sign in. However, when I try to set up windows hello it asks for the pin, which I enter, it makes a sound to say it is correct and then does absolutely nothing.

    Alternatively, I can remove the pin and try setting up windows hello. This does start the facial recognition and then asks me to set up a pin which I enter and end the process. However, neither windows hello or the pin is set up next time I try to sign in.

    Specs:

    HP Envy

    Windows version: 10.0.15063 Build 15063

    Thank you for any help or advice
