    Forgot Pin and unable to reset


    So I have my computer, an HP envy TE01, I forgot my pin and am unable to reset. I only have a pin as my organization settings required I add one to get office. I’m not logged out for the first time since my recent PIN number change it forces. And now I can’t remember it, I clicked forgot my pin, and it just takes me to a blue default windows login and tried to make me login with pin still. When I tried enough times it took the forgot pin button away. Im stumped.

    :)

    I forgot my pin for my window 10

    If you have forgotten your PIN for Windows 10 on your laptop, don't worry, there are a few ways you can reset it.

    1. Use your Microsoft account password: If you have set up a Microsoft account to sign in to your Windows 10 laptop, you can use your account password to sign in instead of the PIN. Click on "Sign-in options" on the login screen and select "Password" to enter your Microsoft account password.
    2. Reset your PIN using your Microsoft account: If you have set up a Microsoft account to sign in to your Windows 10 laptop, you can reset your PIN using your account. Click on "I forgot my PIN" on the login screen and follow the instructions to reset your PIN.
    3. Reset your PIN using the command prompt: If you are unable to reset your PIN using your Microsoft account, you can use the command prompt to reset it. Follow these steps:
    • Press the Windows key + X and select "Windows PowerShell (Admin)".
    • Type the command "net user [your username] *" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
    • You will be prompted to enter a new password. Enter a new password and press Enter.
    • You will be prompted to confirm your new password. Enter it again and press Enter.
    • Your PIN should now be reset.
    1. Reset your PIN using a password reset disk: If you have created a password reset disk before you forgot your PIN, you can use it to reset your PIN. Insert the password reset disk into your laptop and click on "Reset Password" on the login screen. Follow the instructions to reset your PIN.
    If none of these methods work, you may need to reset your laptop to its factory settings. However, this will delete all your data and installed apps, so it should be your last resort.
