Windows 10: I fully reset my pc and now can't login.

I had so much stuff on my pc which was spread out all my storage of little pictures and stuff and I wanted to factory reset my PC but, now I can't do anything because when I turn it on it asks me to sign in, and when I try to do that it says "Your PIN is no longer available due to a change to the security settings on this device. Click to set up your PIN again." I click set up my pin and it says "The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in." and "User profile cannot be loaded"I'm guessing this is because any data it has for my passwords and stuff is DELETED but I'm not sure. I've gone

Unable to login to the PC

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand how it feels when the PC doesn’t work the way it is supposed to. For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below.

1. What is the error message you receive when you try to login to the PC?
   
2. Are you aware of any changes made to the PC prior to which you weren’t facing this issue?
   
3. Are you using a local account or a Microsoft account to login to the PC?
   

If you are using a Microsoft account then I would suggest you to try resetting the password of the PC and see if you are able to login. Refer the article

How to reset your Microsoft account password



If you are using a local account on the PC, then you can refer the article

Reset your Windows 10 local account password



Note: The article talks about resetting the PC. It is not advised to reset the PC if you don’t have the backup of the data.



You can also try booting the PC into safe mode and see if you are able to login. Refer the article

Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10



If the issue persist, please get back to us with the results of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.

How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

I will assume that these devices belong to you.

step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

Break command list: Break Commands

Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
