# PIN reset
**Applies to:**

## Hybrid Deployments
**Requirements:**
- Azure Active Directory
- Hybrid Windows Hello for Business deployment
- Azure AD registered, Azure AD joined, and Hybrid Azure AD joined

The Microsoft PIN reset services enables you to help users recover who have forgotten their PIN. 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.
>[!IMPORTANT]
> The Microsoft PIN Reset service only works with **Enterprise Edition** for Windows 10, version 1709 to 1809. The feature works with **Enterprise Edition** and **Pro** edition with Windows 10, version 1903 and newer.
### Onboarding the Microsoft PIN reset service to your Intune tenant
Before you can remotely reset PINs, you must on-board the Microsoft PIN reset service to your Azure Active Directory tenant, and configure devices you manage.
### Connect Azure Active Directory with the PIN reset service
1. Go to the [Microsoft PIN Reset Service Production website](https://login.windows.net/common/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=b8456c59-1230-44c7-a4a2-99b085333e84&resource=https%3A%2F%2Fgraph.windows.net&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fcred.microsoft.com&state=e9191523-6c2f-4f1d-a4f9-c36f26f89df0&prompt=admin_consent), and sign in using the Global administrator account you use to manage your Azure Active Directory tenant.
2. After you have logged in, choose **Accept** to give consent for the PIN reset service to access your account.

3. Go to the [Microsoft PIN Reset Client Production website](https://login.windows.net/common/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=9115dd05-fad5-4f9c-acc7-305d08b1b04e&resource=https%3A%2F%2Fcred.microsoft.com%2F&redirect_uri=ms-appx-web%3A%2F%2FMicrosoft.AAD.BrokerPlugin%2F9115dd05-fad5-4f9c-acc7-305d08b1b04e&state=6765f8c5-f4a7-4029-b667-46a6776ad611&prompt=admin_consent), and sign in using the Global administrator account you use to manage your Azure Active Directory tenant.
4. After you have logged in, choose **Accept** to give consent for the PIN reset client to access your account.
> [!NOTE]
> After you have accepted the PIN reset service and client requests, you will land on a page that states "You do not have permission to view this directory or page." This behavior is expected. Be sure to confirm that the two PIN reset applications are listed for your tenant.

5. In the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com), verify that the Microsoft PIN Reset Service and Microsoft PIN Reset Client are integrated from the **Enterprise applications** blade. Filter to application status "Enabled" and both Microsoft Pin Reset Service Production and Microsoft Pin Reset Client Production will show up in your tenant.

2. You need your tenant ID to complete the following task. You can discover your tenant ID by viewing the **Properties** of your Azure Active Directory from the Azure Portal. It will be listed under Directory ID. You can also use the following command in a Command window on any Azure AD-joined or hybrid Azure AD-joined computer.</br>
