Windows 10: No option to use PIN on the login screen

Hi,I have a PC that is connected to our businesses Azure AD.I have added the user that is going to use the PC, but no matter what I try I cannot login with a PINcode.I am perfectly able to add a pincode, but the loginscreen doesn't show the option to use it. Only the password can be entered which does work without a problem.The problem is not limited to the account, I am experiencing the same problems with another Azure AD account and with the local account we create as a backup.I have tried these solutions to no avail: https://thegeekpage.com/fix-sign-in-with-pin-is-not-available-in-windows
