  1. Login pin corruption


    After a fatal crash, I had to re-install windows 10. the latest from Microsoft and OEM drivers.The bootup takes a long time [ 4 minutes +] At the login screen, 4 out of 5 starts the pin can't be found.When I do get a successful pin entered, it takes yet another 4 minutes + before the desktop shows.This is problematic for having to re-start for issues like installing software.Screenshots are not possible.Any fixes here would be hot.Thanks, D.G.

    :)

    You may follow the steps below to create PIN protection for your device.

  4. Login pin corruption

    Login Setup won't take a PIN

    Hello,

    I have exact same issues with pin-code login (but I don't have fingerprint scanner).

    When I (logged in as administrator) open abovementioned folder C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService

    I have no \AppData\ folder in there.

    System File Checker tool performed some checks, even reported few fixes, but did
    not resolve pin code issue.
