Windows 10: pin screen not showing

Hi I have just bought my son a recon hp elitebook. He has set up his account details and pin. The first time the PC timed out it went to the sign on page with his details but when you click on this it just goes to the screensaver page and not the pin screen. Windows performed an update so it should be the current windows 10 version.


Any ideas how to get the pin screen up or reset the laptop please?

Clear "Pin suggested" list in People Bar

Thanks Josey Wales,

I can pin and unpin People contacts to the taskbar without problems, but these contacts will still show up on the "Pin suggested" list. It's this list I want to clear, because some contacts or double and some are dummy contacts. It's not that big of a deal, but it's rather annoying to have them suggested to me.
