    Remove both password and pin protection

    I don't want this laptop to lock at all anymore. But it's already password protected. *(I am NOT locked out, tho)*
    It seems I have the choice between a pin or the password but not "neither one".

    Can I side step this somehow? Can I delete myself as the owner or something? HEP me!

    Locked out of Windows 10 & I don't know the PIN nor the password

    Here is the thing, I've forgotten my administrator account password and the PIN to log in to my laptop. Usually I use the fingerprint option but it said it couldn't recognize my fingerprint so now it requires the password or the PIN.

    I already triet booting in safe mode but everything requires a password that I don't know, even the Command Prompt.

    So basically I'm locked out.

    Any suggestions?

    I am locked out. My pin and password both won't work

    I am locked out of my second PC. It will not accept my pin or password.

    I had a problem with my old PC. I updated the drivers and now I cannot login with my PIN or my Password.

    I have updated the password on my working PC. I see both PCs in my Microsoft account but cannot log into old PC. It gives me

    the PIN login screen but will not accept my PIN and tells me to use password. It rejects my password even though I just reset it.
