Forgot Windows 10 Password, but have Pin....

whatishacks

Long story short, I changed my PW but forgot it (First time this has happened).

 

Luckily, I set up a pin when I first made this computer, so i was able to login.

 

How can i reset my password now?

Main PC: 4690k // Z97 // R9 280 3GB // 8gb Ram // CM Elite 430 Case // 750 EVGA B PSU // 1TB HDD

 

Living Room "Console" PC: FX 8350 // 990a SLI Krait // R7 360 // 8gb Ram // HAF 912 // 750 EVGA B PSU // 1TB HDD

 

Future Plans:

find a 2nd monitor at a pawn shop

Sell/giveaway R7 360, move r9 280 into console PC, buy a better GPU for main PC.
