Reset PIN Sign-In?

[AceInfinity]

I'm just curious, does anybody know how to reset the PIN once too many incorrect PIN's have been entered? I don't see any obvious places where this can be done. I would have thought the user-intuitive location would have been in the settings where I had enabled it in the first place but I guess not. :huh:

Perhaps this is something that should be changed to make it easier for a Windows user to re-enable the PIN sign-in? I can't login using the PIN anymore, and I can't change it either (the image above shows the same message as when I try to use the PIN sign-in option to logon to my laptop).

edit: Perhaps there is an automatic timeout? I'm just curious for some information if anybody has some for me. :)

I'm pretty sure you need to sign in using your password to change the pin, or use the password reset disc you should have created when setting up the password.

What? I'm not looking to change the PIN, that is easy -- I could do that before no problem. My problem is now that I've entered too many bad PIN's (testing), I can't find a way to restore it so that I can use the PIN to login again. I have the password, I can get into Windows no problem by changing the sign-in option over to the password instead of the PIN.

I just figured that a "reset" option would be available in the PC settings in the location where I set-up the PIN in the first place but it's not.

Can anyone else test this on Windows 10 for me?
