  1. Password login not recognised, PIN removed and now can't get into laptop


    Hello, I have a lenovo laptop that is linked to my Microsoft account, when I open the laptop I hw e a sign in page with my Microsoft account profile, I removed the Hello PIN earlier today, when I went back to work on the laptop later on, it did not recognise my password on the wake up/log in screen. I am logged into my Microsoft account elsewhere with the password but it will not let me access my laptop since I removed the Hello PIN and I cannot reset the PIN as I can't get in to access the settings on the laptop. Any ideas please as it is causing me a huge headache. Thank you

    :)
