Windows Hello for Business provides the capability for users to reset forgotten PINs using the "I forgot my PIN link" from the Sign-in options page in Settings or from above the lock screen. User's are required to authenticate and complete multi-factor authentication to reset their PIN.
Windows Hello for Business provides the capability for users to reset forgotten PINs using the "I forgot my PIN link" from the Sign-in options page in Settings or from above the lock screen. User's are required to authenticate and complete multifactor authentication to reset their PIN.
There are two forms of PIN reset called destructive and non-destructive. Destructive PIN reset is the default and does not require configuration. During a destructive PIN reset, the user's existing PIN and underlying credentials, including any keys or certificates added to their Windows Hello container, will be deleted from the client and a new logon key and PIN are provisioned. For non-destructive PIN reset, you must deploy the Microsoft PIN reset service and client policy to enable the PIN recovery feature. During a non-destructive PIN reset, the user's Windows Hello for Business container and keys are preserved, but the user's PIN that they use to authorize key usage is changed.

When non-destructive PIN reset is enabled on a client, a 256-bit AES key is generated locally and added to a user's Windows Hello for Business container and keys as the PIN reset protector. This PIN reset protector is encrypted using a public key retrieved from the Microsoft PIN reset service and then stored on the client for later use during PIN reset. After a user initiates a PIN reset, completes authentication to Azure, and completes multi-factor authentication, the encrypted PIN reset protector is sent to the Microsoft PIN reset service, decrypted, and returned to the client. The decrypted PIN reset protector is used to change the PIN used to authorize Windows Hello for Business keys and it is then cleared from memory.

Using Group Policy, Microsoft Intune or a compatible MDM, you can configure Windows 10 devices to securely use the Microsoft PIN reset service that enables users to reset their forgotten PIN through settings or above the lock screen without requiring re-enrollment.
