Hello all!
I have a problem I'm at my ends with right now. I recently (few weeks ago) upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 10 Pro. There was a problem with my OS and Microsoft had to remotely clean install Windows Pro for me because they wouldn't give me a .iso for some reason.
Fast forward to this week.... few issues:
Windows stopped asking for a Pin on login like I had it setup to do, only a password
I cannot change, edit, reset my Pin. I can get as far as entering my Windows password but nothing pops up after
Sometimes the Settings > Sign-In Options page will not load - it requires me to reboot to get it load
Every time I go into sleep mode I cannot log back in without restarting. I have unchecked "Require Password when computer Sleeps" It's just my background, no password entry box, nothing. No keys work.
Thing's I have tried:
Going to C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Microsoft and deleting everything in NGC folder but that just makes the "Sign-In Options" page not work for me so I have to reboot then I'm still stuck without being able to change the pin.
Change to Microsoft Account - still cannot edit pin from there or any Local/Admin Account
Gone into all the Window's settings and Local Policy's I can imagine to double check what is enabled and disabled and found nothing wrong.
Searched the internet far and wide.
PLEASE any advice I will take! Every time I close my computer I have to reboot right now, so frustrating. I've heard of others with similar issues who have done clean wipes and recovery's with no luck!
