If I do a Safe Boot will it allow me to delete the passkey?

Frustrating morning. Went into my Microsoft account, no reference to any passkey settings, so I changed the password. I also changed my net.live account password. That didn't fix anything.
Followed the instructions for removing the PIN , accounts>sign-in-options>PIN button, didn't show the screen that has the remove PIN option, I the "Making sure it's you" box with a PIN entry field, under the field has a message "I forgot my PIN". If I enter my PIN it goes back to the Sign-in Options menu box. If I choose "I Forgot my PIN" ir loops back to the "Making sure it's you" box.

No progress.

that doesn't make much sense, are you sure you are logging in using the same microsoft account as the computer?

You can also try creating another user account and see if signing into that account fixes the issue. Then you can delete the other account.

Lets also try switching your microsoft account to a local account


Then you can rejoin it to a microsoft account later.
