How to Retrieve a Password Using a PIN in Windows 10

While it is not directly possible to retrieve a password using a PIN in Windows 10, you can use the PIN to regain access to your account in certain situations. Here's how:

1. On the Windows login screen, click on 'Sign-in options' below the password field.
2. Select 'PIN' as your sign-in option.
3. Enter your PIN. If the PIN is correct, you will gain access to your account without entering the password.

It's important to remember that the PIN is an alternative form of authentication and not a way to reveal or recover a password.
