    Using Win10 on an HP Pavillion Gaming Laptop

    PIN went away. Now when I go into create a PIN I get "Something went wrong. Try again later". The step prior is: Start.>Settings>Accounts>Sign in Options>Windows Hello PIN and it reads "This options is currently unavailable - click to learn more". I
    followed the steps suggested, but they don't work

    Suggestions?.

    PIN is unavailable

    Something happened and your pin is unavailable. Click to configure new pin. When I click set new pin for a short while it says Please wait and then MS Store dialog box pop up. Clicking this also does nothing on the user side... - - - Updated - - - Something happened and your pin is unavailable. Click to configure new pin.

    Pin unavailable and password changed

    It's not possible to set a PIN for any account without first setting a password for that account.
