  1. Windows 11 pin unavailable and I can’t fix it


    Installed new drivers for my motherboard and windows 11 upon sign in to my pc says my pin is unavailable. Try to reset the pin and when I do it says well send a code to your outlook email. Which is great cause I can’t check my email since my pc is bricked basically stuck in the Lock Screen. So I installed the outlook app on my phone and the email with the said “code” just doesn’t exist. How do I reset my pin?There’s no other options on the code screen or anything and no matter what part of the email I check the code isn’t there not even in junk.My pc is basically bricked how do I fix this?

    :)

    Win10/HP Pavillion - PIN "unavailable"

    Using Win10 on an HP Pavillion Gaming Laptop

    PIN went away. Now when I go into create a PIN I get "Something went wrong. Try again later". The step prior is: Start.>Settings>Accounts>Sign in Options>Windows Hello PIN and it reads "This options is currently unavailable - click to learn more". I
    followed the steps suggested, but they don't work

    Suggestions?.

    Windows 11 PIN unavailable at start

    Windows 11: Beta

    AMD Ryzen 5

    Administrator permissions

    No third-party apps

    Failing update: Realtek

    In trying to resolve an 0x80070103 error on a new HP laptop, I'm now locked out of the device at start-up. The message: Something happened and your pin isn't available. Click to set up your new PIN. <setup my pin>. I followed the instructions as outlined in another post:

    "1. Try to update again after excluding third-party software effect by clean booting:

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows (microsoft.com)

    Disclaimer: A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. It helps to determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program and to isolate the cause of a problem.

    These steps of "clean boot" might look complicated at first glance. However, to avoid any trouble for you, please follow them in order and step-by-step so that it will help you get you back on track."

    I suspect that the issue stems from disabling Edge (the instructions did not advise to bypass disabling t Edge). Is there a repair file that I can load onto a flash drive, or something? Any and all suggestions on this issue would be helpful.
