Reset Windows Password: PIN lookup

When you set up Windows Hello first, you're asked to create a PIN. The PIN is used as an alternative to biometric logon, when the biometric sensor is unavailable or not working properly. Unlike Windows 8, Windows 10 ensures very strong encryption (using even undocumented features and APIs) to protect PINs. Therefore, the problem of forgotten PIN's recovery is extremely vital and faces every user.
 

Selecting Windows directory

First of all, you should select the Windows directory or browse for it manually.

 

Setting up search and recovery options

On the next step, Reset Windows Password offers available recovery methods used to search for PINs. The program's code is highly optimized for speed. But in spite of this, the process of searching for a PIN is extremely slow. For this reason, it is highly recommended to turn off most time-expensive attacks, for example, as in the picture above.

To run a custom recovery method, turn on the 'Custom recovery' checkbox and select one of the available attacks. On the next step, you will be prompted to set up and execute the selected attack.

 

Searching for PIN

The search speed is inversely proportional to the number of pins sought. That is, the more PIN codes are searched simultaneously, the lower the search speed. Therefore, it is recommended to exclude all unnecessary PINs from the search, and leave only the necessary one. You can do it simply right-clicking on the PIN you need to recover and selecting 'Exclude all except selected'. To start the process, hit the << FIND PINS >> button.
