Forgot your Windows PIN: use the account recovery route

Use the available PIN recovery option and verify the account associated with the device. Avoid deleting security folders or using an unknown unlock utility.

By RJ Computers

Quick answer

Use the available PIN recovery option and verify the account associated with the device. Avoid deleting security folders or using an unknown unlock utility.

Understand the issue

First establish whether you forgot the PIN or whether Windows reports that the existing PIN is unavailable. Record the exact message because those situations can need different follow-up. If this is a work device, ask IT about the approved sign-in recovery process.

Step-by-step checks

  1. Check the sign-in screen for the PIN recovery option.
  2. Complete account verification using your own recovery methods.
  3. After recovery, confirm that the new PIN works before signing out again.
