  2. Unable to create Hello PIN - Stuck in login loop

    Hello!

    I recently purchased a Langmuir CNC machine system and one of the steps is to log into a Microsoft account to access the application. As per the instructions included, I created a Microsoft account. After creating a login, it asks me to create a “Hello PIN” in the pop-up window. When hitting next, it tells me that something went wrong.

    “ we weren’t able to set up your pin. You can try again, or skip this step and set up a pin later.”

    What attempting to skip for now it just takes me back and asked me to login again. The device I am trying to set up as a CNC plasma cutter that requires a login. The screen that it comes with does not allow me to do any command searches esc that previous forms have suggested. I’ve also attempted to login separately from my computer and see if I can set up my pin there. I see no option under security>advanced options> add login option to add hello pin option.

    Can you please assist as I’m unable to use my CNC machine without setting up my windows account.

    Thank you!

  3. [Solved] Cannot skip create PIN when login and stuck in loop

    At the last step of logging in using Microsoft account (there's no other options unfortunately) it will ask you to set up PIN. After clicking next it will show PIN cannot be created. The only two options are skip and retry. The skip button will send me back to initial password screen and back to the beginning of the loop.

    I'm experiencing exactly the same problem with all these threads and there's no good solution for this:


    Most of them met this bug on a new computer, but for me I have been normally using this laptop for ~4 years and this is the first time. I don't want to reset my computer as I'm suffering from semester final things and I want it to work ASAP.

    I have tried to boot in safe mode and login, and it said that only administers can login in safe mode (of course I am! This is my personal laptop!), so there's no way to log into it.

    I have also tried to create local admin users in safe mode and seems that the created accounts will be wiped out when I restart the system to try to login using the new temp user in normal mode. Deleting / changing permission of Nqc also not work.

    Is resetting the system the only option left? I'm super unhappy about this as this will take so many time to reinstall all applications (and potential losses).

    Is there any other method to solve this? Can we set the PIN preference online?

    One possible cause is that I changed my Microsoft account password about one month ago. But this could not explain why my existing PIN was also wiped out.

    Since the earliest report I have found, this severe bug has been there for at least 1.5 years and MSFT has still done nothing of it. The same issue happens to DWM.exe memory leakage, and I really feel bad about this.

  4. Loop at login when asked to create a PIN

    OSK PIN login on non-touch device

    Hello,

    I suggest you to create a PIN for your device and try the on screen keyboard to login to the same.

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


    • Go to Settings and select account.

    • Click on sign in option and Go to PIN option.

    • Now click on Add and set PIN for login.

    You can use the same PIN to login to your device using the on screen Keyboard from ease of access option and verify the result.

    Please get back to us with updated status. We will be happy to assist you further.
