  1. two things. I don't want my PIN login, nor my Password to log on with. I want neither.


    I have experienced login issues over the years and am fed up with it.1. After updating....... the login told me I had tried too many times with the incorrect login, which is nonsense and then forced me to reset the PIN.I wound paying a tech support company to help me with the PIN reset. I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT YOUR FAILURE COSTING ME MONEY!I had to reset the PIN, which I did.Then I removed the update on my own, which apparently has a bug.2. To reiterate, I want neither the PIN or the password to use my laptop.Anyone know the answer to both?Yes, I am the only user so I have administrative rights.

    :)

  2. Forgotten PIN and expired password

    Hi Dyari,

    Thanks for your answer.

    I tried steps of both links:

    • #1: reset PIN code
      • I see no link "reset your PIN"on login page --> I can't reset it
    • #2: change or reset windows password
      • My Windows account is not displayed at all on login page.
      • I am using a local account
    If you have any other suggestion, I would be more than happy to try.

    Regards,

    Guillaume

    Unable to login using The login PIN

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft community.

    I suggest you to follow the below steps to change the pin and check fi it helps.

    • In the login page next to “PIN password option”.
    • You will find “Other sign in options”, click on it will prompt you for regular password.
    • Enter regular password and login to the computer.
    • I suggest you to click on the Start Menu
      and select settings.
    • Now select Accounts.
    • Next select the tab Sign-in option.
    • Under the “PIN tab” click on “ADD” option.
    • It will prompt you for current pin password and new password, please provide
      new password then apply the changes, restart
      the computer and check if it works.
