    Despite having registered a PIN when first prompted, the option to change my PIN seems to be missing from my sign-in options. Is there a way to fix this?

  2. Hello & PIN sign-in options missing

    Hi,

    The Hello (face recognition) and PIN options have disappeared from the sign-in options on my Dell Inspiron running Windows 10.

    This occurred after having to resolve a SecureBoot problem - likely to be due to a recent automatic upgrade.

    Each time I try and set a new image and new PIN, I get caught in a loop for the PIN and the image for Hello never successfully forces through creation of Hello and PIN sign-in options.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    BArry

    The option "Pin to Start Menu" is missing in the right click menu for People App.

    I have been unable to pin a tile to the Start Menu for the Windows 10's People App. The option "Pin to Start Menu" is missing in the right click menu. When I try to drag and drop the entry from the All Apps area to the Start Menu tiles area, it tells
    me that the app is already pinned there, but it's not. Are there any steps I can take to activate this option for this app?
