    PIN/Biometric not working

    Hello All,



    I'm having Windows 10 installed on a lenovo laptop. My laptop was working fine untill yesterday. Today morning when I was trying to sign in, windows was showing message, "something happened and your PIN isn't available". At this time, my biometric password
    was also not working, if tried with biometric it says PIN is required to sign in. When I tried to sign in using password, it is saying incorrect password although password os correct. Basically all three ways of sign in PIN, biometric and password is not working
    and I'm unable to sign in.

    Can someone please suggest a way to solve the issue without loosing data.

    Thanks in advance.
