Windows 10: Why doesn't Windows 11 let me use a PIN at star up anymore?

All of a sudden Windows 11 will not let me use my PIN on start up, it wants me to enter a single use code that Microsoft emails me, but I can't access my email without the computer starting up -Typical Microsoft BS & CATCH 22

Scanner doesn´t work anymore after last Windows 10 update

I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.
