Console pin appears out of blue. Cant remove it

Hey there, Kruz May

Please can you press and hold the power button on your console until the console shuts off. This will clear the cache on the console. Once the console has shut off, please turn the console back on and try signing into your account.

When it asks for a pin, please enter the pin incorrectly three times. Once you have entered the pin incorrectly three times, it should prompt you to enter your Microsoft account password.

Once you have entered your Microsoft account password, you should see an option to make a new pin. Once you have made a new pin, you can remove the pin by going to Profile & System > Settings > Account > Sign-in, security & PIN

You should see an option to delete your pin.

Hope this information helps,

Nathan

Hi and thanks for reaching Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

Thanks for reaching out! I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you.

I'll be happy to assist you out today.

DYoungblut is this pin appearing on your Xbox and windows PC?

If yes, on your console could you try entering a random pin like 5 or 10 times to see if something like "forgotten pin?" appears?

You could try removing any disc from the machine and unplugging the console.

Then flip the console upside down and see if you can gently move the console to the point that the pin falls back out of the vent.

Don't shake the machine but gently rock the console side to side to try and get the pin to come back out again.

Hope it works for you, that is just plain unlucky to have happened.

I'm not the original poster on this, but he more than likely stopped following up out of frustration.

Nothing in this thread resolves the signin option that exists when all user accounts are setup with PINs. It would appear that Microsoft recently removed the option to remove 'Skip Sign in' on the Xbox series x.

Can you confirm that this option has been removed?

Here's how to remove a pin

1.From Xbox Home, select My Pins.

2.Highlight a pin and press X.

3.Select Remove Pin.

is it not removing when you do this?
