  1. Windows asked PiN and I do not recall it


    Hi! This morning Windows asked for pin and I cannot recall it. Also I don’t recall security answers. Tried to do troubleshooting/advanced options/uninstall updates/ uninstall latest feature update. When I click uninstall latest feature updates, I got: we ran into a problem , try resetting your PC instead. I did and nothing changed. I still cannot use password instead of pin. What I need to do? Thanks

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Xbox App asking for PIN number I never set.

    Hi,

    If you signed in to Windows 10 using your Microsoft account, the Xbox app will take the credentials you've used to sign in. There's a possibility that the PIN code you're asked to enter is the PIN code of your Windows 10 user account. Let's remove the PIN
    code. Here are the steps:

    • Click Start and select Settings.
    • Select Accounts.
    • Select Sign-in options, under PIN, click
      Remove
      .
    • Confirm the changes by entering your profile password.
    Refer to
    Can I sign in to Windows without a password
    for the steps on how to change the sign-in options for your Windows 10 device.

    If the same instance occurs after removing the PIN code and changing your user account's sign-in options, we suggest that you sign in to
    Xbox.com. This is to verify if there's an issue with your Xbox account.

    Keep us posted with the results. We'd be glad to further assist you.

    Windows Not asking for Bluetooh PIN

    Hello Medic535,

    To isolate the issue, kindly provide us these details:

    • What device are you trying to connect?
    • Have you made any changes on your computer prior to the issue?
    • Which version of Windows is currently installed?
    • Have you updated the Bluetooth driver on your computer?
    • Have you checked if the same thing happens when you try to connect another Bluetooth device?
    • Have you checked if your Bluetooth device has a manual that contains the PIN?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you check the answer of MVP Andre Da Costa on this
    thread
    to walk you through setting up your Bluetooth device with Windows 10.

    We’ll keep an eye out for your response.
