Pin recovery on Windows involves resetting or recovering your PIN or password directly from the lock screen, a feature introduced in the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. Users can click "I forgot my password" on the lock screen, verify with a CAPTCHA, and receive a recovery code via email or phone to reset credentials.
