  2. Windows 11 - Windows hello PIN and Camera face recognition do not work

    Hi,

    Windows 11 - Windows hello PIN and Camera face recognition do not work, for both of them, when reaching the final step, the window closes before saying completed, and nothing happens

    Steps to replicate on my PC - WIN 11:

    1. Situation 1 - Trying to change PIN:
      1. Settings - Accounts - Pin(Windows Hello)
      2. Although i'm currently using a PIN to log into my user, I only get 1 button: Setup
      3. Press Setup - Create a PIN - Next
      4. Making sure it's you - I add my PIN - Just a moment - the window closes, nothign happens
    2. Situation 2 - Trying to add Face recognition:
      1. Settings - Accounts - Facial recognition (Windows Hello) - Setup
      2. Welcome to Windows hello - Get started
      3. My face is scanned, i get a blue loading square, and dots on my things
      4. A couple more things
      5. Improbve recognition - if i skip this steps it does not make a difference
      6. A couple more things - Set up PIN
      7. Microsoft Account - Create a PIN - Next
      8. Making sure it's you - I add my PIN - Just a moment - the window closes, nothign happens
    I initially thought my webcam was the issue, but then chaging the PIN does not work either, and it has nothing to do with the camera

    I talked with someone from support (support request number is 1056162110), and we tried different things until 3:30 AM my time, about 1:30 h.

    On my laptop (win 10) with the same account, face recognition and PIN works, I have not tried to change them.

    Is there any way to reset PIN on an account level? Or repair windows?

    What else should i try?

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Windows 11: PIN entry issue

    Good Evening:

    Quick and crazy question...

    I have a new DELL XPS computer (Windows 11; Intel I7, 12th gen; 16 GB RAM; new Microsoft wireless keyboard/mouse). The computer has updated Windows 11 installed. The only issue I notice is this: When Windows 11 starts, I am asked to enter my PIN. When entering my PIN using my keyboard, there is quite a delay after hitting the keyboard key and the entry showing up in the PIN bar. I then have to clear the "partial PIN" entry, and re-enter the 4-digit PIN.

    By the way, the delay is only observed during PIN entry. All other applications show no delay when using the keyboard.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    John
