Windows 10: "You have entered an incorrect PIN too many times" on the FIRST entry

Hi all,I keep getting the "you have entered an incorrect PIN too many times -- enter security code A1B2C3" message ALL THE TIME lately, before I have even attempted my PIN once. I will shut my laptop, or come back and turn it on, open it up, whatever, and it's the first screen I see.I also keep having a problem with my browsers forgetting my login information -- like every time I log into my bank it tells me I'm on a new device and I have to authenticate. Same with email. I don't have a VPN on and my PIN is the same as it always has been.Anyone know what I can do to fix it? TIA!

Entered an Incorrect PIN too Many Times

Here are your options:

• Enter the correct PIN
• Click "Login options" then log in with your password
• Wait until the timeout that you see on the screen has expired
• Log on with the spare admin account that you wisely created some time ago, same as you had a spare key cut for your house.

 

Entered an Incorrect PIN too Many Times

I will try waiting several days as you did. When steps are suggested they aren't understanding that there are no choice...the screen just says you have entered the wrong pin too many times....that's all. Then restart your computer. No other choices are
on the screen.
