  1. Windows 11 PIN not able to be set up


    Hello,I am an IT administrator at my work and I am setting up a brand new laptop to replace my current one. It is running windows 11 and is a fresh install. When I have logged in with my work email, It asks me to set up my PIN, which I do so, I then get the following error:I cannot find the error code 0x801c0027 anywhere. I've set up other new laptops for other users in the same way and there has not been a PIN issue. I have reset the PC completely and tried again with no change, I have also gone into my AppData folder and deleted the Ngc folder without any resolution.Can anyone help?

    :)

  2. Windows Hello PIN Something went wrong. we weren't able to set up your pin.

    Surface book2; I got this message "Windows Hello PIN Something went wrong. we weren't able to set up your pin. You can try again, or skip this step and set up PIN later" since 2 years ago until now. I looked through all the suggested like NGC file, DISM command, gpedit.msc, and more. I really don't want to reinstall everything because it will cause more problem and time.

    please fix this problem.

    thank you
