    Windows PIN locked out - unable to reset

    This did not solve my problem.

    When setting up my new PC, I originally had a PIN and a Password to log onto my PC.

    However, I incorrectly entered the PIN too many times and remember seeing some sort of system error message that I had been permanently locked out from my PIN. Whenever I follow the steps to reset the PIN, the PIN will not reset.

    I can only log on using my Password now.

    This is a brand new PC. If this cannot be solved, I plan to return my PC for a refund.

    After Windows 10 update, signin screen won`t accept my pssword.

    Sign-in screen won`t take my password after Windows 10 update on a new HP laptop. I had setup a pin login but now asks for Microsoft password which I wrote down and have used before but will not accept now.
