Subject: Unable to Unlock Device After Remote Lock
Hello,
I used the Find My Device – Remote Lock feature from my Microsoft account for my laptop (Dell Inspiron 15 3530). After that, my laptop now shows a screen asking me to enter a PIN at boot.
The problem is:
During the remote lock process, I was not prompted to set any PIN.
My original Windows Hello PIN is not being accepted.
Later, I mistakenly removed the device from my Microsoft account, so I no longer see the unlock option on the devices page.
Now the laptop is stuck on the lock screen and I cannot use it.
I am the legitimate owner of this device and can provide Service Tag/Serial Number, Proof of Purchase, and my Microsoft account details for verification.
Could you please help me unlock my device or reset/remove the remote lock?
Thank you,
[Your Name]
