  3. PIN is now being required to logon

    Hi Kevin,

    If you're having trouble using your PIN to sign into Windows, you can try resetting your PIN. Kindly check this

    If that doesn't work. We suggest resetting your PC.

    • Start your PC and select the Power icon in the bottom right-hand corner of the lock screen.

    • While holding down the Shift key, select Restart.

    • On the Boot options menu, select Troubleshoot > Reset this PC > Remove everything.

    • Your PC will restart and will reset itself.
