[SOLVED] "Something happened and your PIN isn't available. Click to set up your PIN again "

[Eakin2001]

So last night i removed my pin becouse i found it so annoying, after that i restarted my pc found that "headline" instead of welcome
it tells me to set up a PIN when i click on 'Set up my PIN'
And when i click that it tells me 'search for app in the store' with 2 options(yes/no)
No metter what option i choose i click no it takes me back the place where i see the "headline"

wow, Microsofts answer for that is to reset PC... reminds me of when win 10 was first out, that was their answer for everything.

I have also had the same problem. The answer was not where I expected it to be.
Log on, cancel the PIN prompt as in the OP. Then, when you're at the desktop, click the Windows Defender Security Centre icon on the tray. Under "Account Protection", it should say "Set up Windows Hello for faster, more secure sign-in".
If you click "Set-up", it will prompt you to set up a pin, so don't do that. Instead, click "Dismiss" and that should be that. After doing this, my laptop stopped prompting me to set up a pin on logon!
Incidentally, while I had this problem, when I got to the desktop, I had an Explorer window that I couldn't get rid of. It was off-screen, but the taskbar icon was still present for it. The title of the window was "Microsoft Account". Task Manager showed it as not responding, and killing the task in Task Manager got rid of it successfully. This window did not re-appear after following the procedure above to get rid of the PIN setup.

I can't seem to find an answer. I expect its likely a registry change

see if the registry edit here helps - https://www.passcope.com/how-to-disable-windows-hello-pin/ (Don't download anything)
backup registry before doing anything in it- https://neosmart.net/wiki/backup-restore-registry/
