    Windows Pin


    Hi,


    I have set up a windows hello PIN.

    I want to change that pin because my son has figured it out.


    When I go to start-settings-sign in options, it tells me that windows hello pin is currently unavailable. But I have one and want to change it!


    There is no option from the sign in screen to change your pin.


    How do I fix this?


    thanks,


    GWW

    :)

    Clear "Pin suggested" list in People Bar


    Does anybody know how to clear the "Pin suggested" list on the "People bar"?

    Contacts are added to the "Pin suggested" list once you've pinned and unpinned them. But there seems to be no obvious way to remove them from that list.

    After playing around with this feature and pinning and unpinning many dummy contacts, it's rather annoying to see them in the "Pin suggested" list when you click on the "My People" icon in the taskbar.
