Unable to change PIN or fingerprint reader settings (alien.top)

Hi framework fans, I'm here to see if anyone else have this problem with their settings. I want to add another fingerprint now but it says that everything but security key option is unavailable. When I click into the options, I cannot disable or change any of the sign in options and its says something went wrong. Those sign in methods still work because windows enabled them on setup. How can I fix this? Is anyone else having this issue? Thanks, Kai

I had that problem when I linked my school account to the laptop, it wanted me to use a more complex pin. Windows said that my administrator required it.

I am connected to my schools network, I’ll remove it and try again. Did you have to remove the connection to change the pin because I cannot change the pin.

I had set it up with only my personal account originally so my fingerprint was already in Though the next day I was trying to relink my school account and it disabled both my pin and fingerprint. For that I also had to unlink the account. I’m going to try fiddling with the permissions so it doesn’t do this anymore.
