    Windows has forget my log in pin and wants to set a new one up. But it will not go through...


    My PIN on Windows has stopped working and says it needs to set a new one up. To do this, I need to reset my password, but as part of the checks, I need to send a code to my phone and email. Email is fine, and I have my phone, but for the last 3 days, it says the phone recovery is not working and to try another way. I have no other way. I will lose my job soon because I can not get access to pc documents on my PC, and you have no way to speak to anybody to resolve this.
