    Something happened & your PIN is not available


    Hello Microsoft Community,I was previously using Windows 10 and often the error mentioned in the Title used to appear while logging in. Even though I applied and tested all methods available in this community and over the internet but it never got resolved.The interesting thing to note is that this error never appears while using a local account. It only arises often when you log in Microsoft account on your PC.Microsoft strongly recommends using its account instead of local accounts but never tries to resolve problems.Now, I have recently shifted to Windows 11 and had to face the same issue a

    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.
