Windows 10: I forgot my laptop's login pin, but when trying to change it with backup email,"Something...

I have tried multiple times along several days and restarts to reset my pin so I can simply use my laptop. Every time I press forgot pin, receive one-use code to change pin, but then Microsoft account window popups, asks me for registered email one-time use code, which I receive and subsequently enter, yet after asking if I'm sure I want to change pin and pressing continue, "Something goes wrong" and retry button doesnt work, leaving me just with an "skip" button which leads me to trying to login again. Please helpHP Pavilion recently bought.

Forgot Login PIN

Hello,

I setup a login pin on my Laptop Account using my email address. I forgot my PIN and i cannot access my laptop anymore. How can i remove the PIN using my microsoft account? I already know its password.

 

Forgot PIN, no other login options

I lost the PIN for a Windows laptop. When I hit "forgot my PIN" the screen said "just a moment" and had a spinning circle. It stayed that way for about 10 minutes, then there was a popup that said "you must download an app from the Store to complete this request". When I returned to the login screen, I tested a number of PINs that were incorrect, and now there is no "forgot my PIN" option. There was never an option to sign in with a password listed.
