    Windows 11 says "Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again." But when I click on "Set up my PIN", it can't because it hasn't connected to the internet at this step.Whenever i tried to boot a different way i.e. Safe mode I still get the same result.Any help would be appreciated!

    :)

    Pin isn’t available. Set Up Pin

    Windows 11 on start says “ something happened and your PIN isn’t available. Click to set up your PIN again”

    Click “Set up my pin” and a pop up says “search for app in app store? You need to install an app for this task. Yes or no?

    Click “yes” and im back to the pin isnt available.

    I have already uninstalled both quality and feature updates. Did nothing.

    I also did a full reset with “save my files” because I just had to reinstall windows 11 a few days ago (wasnt working lost its sound) and just reloaded everything on there yesterday

    I also have tried booting in safe mode and get the same “pin isn't available” loop.

    Any help is appreciated since im locked out my pc!

    Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again.

    Hi, I just reset my PIN and restarted my laptop. I got the following message: Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again. When I click on Set up my PIN, nothing happens.

    I tried to login using password but it says that the password is incorrect. I tried to reset it but I don't remember the security questions. How can I unlock the laptop. It is using Windows 11.
