Windows 10: Laptop PIN isn't working after update, and recovery code for a new pin never arrives. There...

Basically the title. An update restarted my laptop, and now it says: “Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again.” When I try to set up my pin again, it says enter the code sent to my email, but there is never any code received on my end. There are no other options presented, like using your password etc.Need some help. Thanks

Windows 10 PIN code not working after System Recovery

After I did System Recovery when the start menu stopped coming up when I click on it, the Windows 10 PIN code didn't work anymore, and I'm not an admin, so I can't do these steps!

To repair your PIN & picture password:

Open File Explorer and browse to this location:

C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\NGC

Delete everything within that folder

Go to Settings-> Accounts->Sign-in Options

Click Add a PIN again and set your PIN

PIN sign in should work going forward

Should I try as many PIN codes as I can to find a new PIN code that would work?

Printer isn´t working after latest update.

After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.
