Windows 10 PIN. Don’t Remember, But Know My Password. SOLVED.
After restarting from Windows 10 Updates you may be asked for a PIN. If you can’t remember or don’t know your PIN, here are instructions how to get back into W10 with your account password.
The 20H2 update forces some users to sign-in with a PIN. This video explains how to regain access to your Windows account and fix the forgotten PIN.
If the "I forgot PIN" options don't work for any reason, this method will let you back in to your account.

Good day and Thank you Sir for your tips. It works like a charm. This is the working solution. I have to also delete the Ngc folder to get rid of the PIN since I forgot the outlook password. Once again thank you for the video and directions, you are Great.
Wow thanks very much got me back up and running can't thank you enough your a star!
Thanks. I watch this channel to solve my computer. It took along time to reboot. But everything works fine. I have my windows back

What does it mean when it’s telling you that there’s a problem with locating the update? I didn’t even authorize this and have restarted my laptop too many times to count. Thank you.
@computroon hey so my comp did this, but when I tried to uninstall feature update it just recommended a reset (troubleshoot > reset) halp?!
Will it work if I uninstall latest quality update instead? Because it’s not letting me uninstall the other one
Best video! Fixed my problem after searching for 4hours. Thank you so much!!
Waw! Thank you soooooooo much buddy! I almost threw my entire laptop out! God bless you!!
Hey there, I have an issue, yesterday I only had the pin option which I used your insurrections, the remove feature did not work, but I recovered from a previous version. This got me in, I then removed the pin. I could then login with my password. Come to switch on my computer today and all I have is my name and sign in . Buy I click it and it stays just a moment, then loops back to 'sign in'. I cannot do anything else. I have tried repeating your method, I cannot remove update feature and the recover previous version now does not work. Some clash with avg antivirus error 🤔
I remember my PIN but I hate having my laptop locked. Do you have a work around for entering the pin on Windows10 Pro, tho this supposed to have Home, on an HP Elitebook laptop pls? TY!
i did everything you did but when the uninstallment was finished it still made me put in my pin, i also tried “i forgot my pin” but it kept telling me something was wrong and it couldn’t setup my pin

Hi. Great video. However, in the midst of following these steps, I now see: “We ran into a problem and won’t be able to uninstall the latest feature update of Windows. Try resetting your PC instead (Troubleshoot > Reset this PC).” Then, after clicking ‘Reset this PC’ I now have: “There was a problem resetting your PC. No changes were made.” :/ Please help. Thanks and blessings in advance.

Hello, this has worked for me in the past now it’s no longer working. It actually restarts the computer and doesn’t take me to the troubleshooting page. Please what can I do. I did exactly as you instructed. I hovered the cursor around the restart and I held on to the shift and clicked restart anyway. I have tried so many times. It just actually restarts. Please help
Thank you! Greetings from Germany! ☺

Hi, I have tried your method a good few times and it won't let me in, my account name comes up and it asks for a password. I just can't remember the password so I can't get into system restore, DAMN. I know this is advice is a couple of years.
Hi! It’s working up until the uninstall latest feature bit. It’s says it ran into a problem and to reset the PC instead. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to reset it?

Reset is an option and it will give you the choice to keep all your files. Installed programs and saved browser passwords will be lost though. Have you tried two of the other options within the recovery console - System Restore & Startup Repair. Might also be worth trying Startup Settings and when it comes around press number 4 key for Safe Mode. If you can get Safe Mode to load, from there you should be able to edit PIN. Good luck.

Hey mate, followed your steps, right up to uninstall latest feature. After that it says, 'we ran into a problem and won't be able to uninstall the latest feature etc...'. I've reset my laptop twice. Tried the 'I forgot my pin' option a few times and still nothing. How do I go past the uninstall latest feature stage when we run into an issue. I'm on day two of this problem and I'm about to put a hammer through my laptop. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Hi. Sounds like you might be better with a clean install, or at least run the install repair from USB. If you have access to another computer, go to Google and search for "windows media creation tool". Create media onto a USB stick and boot your computer into that to run either a system repair or clean install.

Once you have removed the PIN, add a new one, but this time you know it. So if it does revert to asking for PIN only... you simply enter it to gain access. This glitch caused real problems for people who had never created a PIN and only ever used password to login.

As soon as you remove the PIN, you should get the option to Add PIN. If you go ahead and do that, you can install updates knowing that if it asks for a PIN again, you know what it is. Hope this helps.

Click On Remove everything 8. Click fully clean the drive 9. Click reset this should take some hours When it’s finished you will get a setup menu set it up yourself and that’s it hope it helped!

Bob you can download the installation media free by Googling "Windows Media Creation Tool". You'll need a USB stick and it'll have to be downloaded on another system, but should save the expense or ordering recovery media from the manufacturer. Boot to the USB and choose "Repair" rather than "Install".

First thing to do is check what you have just typed. Once you type the password, click and hold the little "eye" icon along from the password bullets. This will display what you have typed and rule out keyboard problems, language layout, numlock and caps lock issues. Failing that, your Microsoft Account password can be changed on another computer. If the computer is offline, it may be looking for an old password. If it's an offline account there are methods of removing or changing the password for the user account. Good luck with this, let us know how you get on.
It was working until the point to where it said 'We ran into a problem trying to uninstall the latest feature update.' And so I tried to reset my PC. Instead, it said 'There was a problem resetting your PC.' So basically, there's no way I can get back in.

Are you able to get into Safe Mode via Startup Settings in the recovery console? You may have to run a clean install. You'll need a USB drive and access to another computer. Run a Google search for "windows media creation tool". Backup important files first though.
Hello. Our laptop is doing exactly what you video is about. My daughter went on, put the password in and it restarted then asked for a pin. We don’t know it and can’t get it so I thought I would try this, but then I was worried it would wipe everything on there? Will this happen as I have alot of things that I need? So sorry, I’m not tech savvy at all 😩 thank you in advance for any help 🙏🏻 xx

Hi. No, the instructions in this video will undo the updates that went in. Before Windows installs a major update, it creates a sort of restore point that you can roll back to. This does not affect any saved files that you have. Do not select "Reset This PC". Instead, take Advanced Options and Uninstall Latest Feature Update.

Hi @ Quency Gaile. Couple of things to try. Firstly, once you have typed in the password, click and hold the little eye icon along from the password bullet points. This will reveal what you have just typed. Just in case your Caps Lock or Num Lock is on or off. Secondly. If you have no success, you can change your Microsoft password on by using another device account.microsoft.com/ Within there look for Security and change from in there. Good luck with that.
