  • Issue - User has forgotten PIN that was setup when initially setting up Windows Hello

  • Solution
    • While the user is logged in, open a command prompt (NOT as Administrator!)
    • Type certutil /deletehellocontainer

This command effectively deletes all aspects of Windows Hello that was setup on the machine and allows it to be re-setup.
