  3. Can't create pin for login. Pin stopped working

    Try the steps here:

    • Navigate to PC Settings -> Accounts -> Sign-in options. Click on I forgot my PIN link.
    • Next, click on the Continue button in the Are you sure you forgot your PIN? screen.
    • You can now add a new PIN and click OK.

    Can't sign into my personal account to set a PIN on my home pc

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand the difficulties that you are facing while setting up a PIN for your personal PC. We appreciate your effort in providing us the detailed information on the issue along with the PC.



    In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below.



    • What is the email account showing under “Your info” in Settings Account?
    • Are you connected to any domain network?
    • Do you have any other user account on the same PC?


    Meanwhile, we would suggest you to create a new user account and sign in with the Microsoft account (i.e. Outlook) and then try creating a PIN in that user account. Follow the steps from the article

    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10
