    Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again.

    "Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again". When I click on "setup PIN" it does nothing.

    WIN 11 upgraded last night from WIN 10 by itself and now I can't get in to the PC. I only have one profile on the PC and I have tried a system fix in advanced options.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?? Please help

    Pin isn’t available. Set Up Pin

    Windows 11 on start says “ something happened and your PIN isn’t available. Click to set up your PIN again”

    Click “Set up my pin” and a pop up says “search for app in app store? You need to install an app for this task. Yes or no?

    Click “yes” and im back to the pin isnt available.

    I have already uninstalled both quality and feature updates. Did nothing.

    I also did a full reset with “save my files” because I just had to reinstall windows 11 a few days ago (wasnt working lost its sound) and just reloaded everything on there yesterday

    I also have tried booting in safe mode and get the same “pin isn't available” loop.

    Any help is appreciated since im locked out my pc!

    Locked out. Stuck at "something happened in your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again. Set up my PIN." Locked out, can't search for app in the store...

    I am locked out of my computer. I get the message "Something happened to your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again. Set up my PIN."

    I click on that and it wants me to go to the app Store. I am not able to go to the app Store since I am stuck at the start screen and my pin is not available. How can I bypass this?
