Hi. I have forgotten my windows PIN-code on my pc. I have a Asus ZenBook laptop.

As sign-in options I have only face and PIN-code options.

With regards ,

    Then hopefully the face Id will work and some other things to try.

    On the sign-in screen, when you enter wrong PIN, you'll got 'I forgot my PIN' link.

    Just click on it, follow on-screen instructions to reset your PIN.
