Hello, I have a Lenovo Yoga 530 laptop with Windows 10. But for the past few days, I have been unable to unlock my computer; when I enter my PIN, it says:
This sign-in option is disabled due to failed sign-in attempts or repeated shutdowns. Use another sign-in option or leave your device on for at least 2 hours and then try again. I have tried both tips, but it doesn’t work. I really want to unlock it because otherwise my parents will have to take it away, and all my data will be lost, since I have a lot of ultra-important things on it.

Hello,
is this a PIN code? (often linked to a Microsoft, Hotmail, Outlook account, etc...)
Well, before taking apart the hard drive, try to follow the advice from this site; the article deals with lost or forgotten PIN codes on Windows 10.

try to keep us updated, but it seems to me that the problem isn't too serious..
