    Why do I have to keep changing my pin number?


    I have had my new laptop for about 8 months now, and I would say that every six weeks or so, I get a message saying "your organization requires a new pin" and I am forced to change my pin number. this has been extremely annoying to me, as this is my personal computer and not connected to any organization, and it forces me to create a brand new pin every time. Is there any way to turn this setting off? I have tried a few suggestions I've seen from other threads, but I often come across barriers to them.Please help me!! I don't want to change my pin anymore!!

    :)

    Trouble saving voicemail number

    To access my voicemail it is my phone number, a pause and 4 digit pin.



    I did the following steps:

    • Turned off default voicemail number
    • Added a , (for pause) at end of my phone number
    • Added the 4 digit pin
    I get the following error message We're having trouble saving your voicemail number right now. Try again later.



    Any suggestions on how to correct this?

    Pin number

    Hi Grace,

    There is a possibility that the PIN file is corrupted or certain changes like recent upgrade/updates have affected the PIN's functionality. In order for us to provide the appropriate solution to your concern, we would like to ask for more details. Please
    answer the following:

    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    • Have you made any recent changes to the sign-in options or installed updates prior to the issue?
    • Are you getting an error message after attempting to create a new PIN number?

    We will wait for your response.
