Windows 10: Pin

Hello,


I have recently been trying to change my Pin ever since I was asked to change my PIN in my lockscreen from 4 digits to 6 digits. however, I haven't been able to find the change pin options under the sign in options in settings. I want to revert back to 4 digit pin but since I am unable to find the option for changing the pin in settings, I am unable to do so. Please advice on how I can retrieve my pin settings under sign in options and change it.


Thanks.

:)

 

Clear "Pin suggested" list in People Bar


Does anybody know how to clear the "Pin suggested" list on the "People bar"?

Contacts are added to the "Pin suggested" list once you've pinned and unpinned them. But there seems to be no obvious way to remove them from that list.

After playing around with this feature and pinning and unpinning many dummy contacts, it's rather annoying to see them in the "Pin suggested" list when you click on the "My People" icon in the taskbar.

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.
