Add Pin option is not working

If the previous steps failed to work. You can try to Remove
and Add your PIN. Here are the steps:

• Click on Sign-in options and login to Windows with your Microsoft account or local account Password.
• Click on Windows icon at the bottom-right corner, on top of Start Menu click on your account icon and select Change account settings.
• On the left-side panel of Accounts settings, select Sign-in options.
• On this page, you have a number of options
  select PIN.
• Directly below PIN, you will see two buttons. Click on Remove.
• You will be asked "Are you sure you want to remove your PIN?" etc. Select
  Remove.
• A Log-in Box now opens for you to re-enter your Password then click
  OK.
• You will be returned to the Sign-in option
  page where you can now add a PIN once again.

Pin sign in not working with Toshiba Satellite laptop

Way back in about June the pin sign in worked on my Toshiba Satellite laptop. All the Builds after that do have the pin sign in option and I have even changed this, but do not get the option to use it when signing in. Annoying because the pin sign in works
perfectly with my HP TouchScreen computer and with my Surface II. Any suggestions?
