  2. challenge phrase

    Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is Anthony.

    I'm Independent Advisor and I'm happy to assist you.

    I came across to your post and wanted to assist.I hope we can work together to find a solution for you.

    First, "Challenge Phrase" is a new approach taken by Microsoft to thwarting brute force attacks or cyber trespassers. This attack involves a simple process of trying all common or likely PIN codes over and over until the correct code is finally discovered.
    When a PIN gets entered incorrectly four times in a row, users are sent to a different screen where they are requires to enter a specific phrase.

    May I know what are you trying to do before the challenge phrase prompted?

    And what do you mean by nothing happens? Did this mean you where directed to another windows?

    Kindly give further details so I can suggest or give you a step by step procedure to fix this.

    Thank you and Keep Safe.

    I don't know my challenge phrase

    One of my friend entered my laptop pin incorrectly and now it is asking me for a challenge phrase. I remember my pin but there is no way I can go back and enter my pin to login to my laptop. I don't remember having a challenge phrase. Is there anyway I
    can login using my pin again?

    How do I get around the Challenge Phrase?

    How do I get around the Challenge Phrase? I have followed all steps. However I cannot move past the

    login screen. I am asked for Challenge Phrase (A1B2C3), I enter this and respnse is enter pin.

    Do this and it returns back to where I started explaining I have entered the wrong pin.

    I cannot move past this screen. What would the next logical move be please?
