If you first installed your Hardware Security Key on a Windows device it would have requested you to set up a PIN. If you did enable a PIN and have incorrectly entered it three times in a row, reboot the Security Key by removing and reinserting it before trying again.If the PIN is entered incorrectly eight times in a row, regardless of rebooting it, the FIDO2 function will become blocked — not by Kraken, but by the device itself. You will then need to reset your Security Key from either your Operating System’s settings or via your Security Key’s settings. Resetting your Security Key will make it obsolete from anything it has been previously associated with.For an overview on how to set up or use a PIN visit the website of your Hardware Security Key manufacturer i.e. if you use a YubiKey, visit <a href="https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402836718866-Understanding-YubiKey-PINs" target="blank" rel="noopener" data-testid="external-link">Yubico&#x27;s website.</a>

Kraken Support Specialists have no control over the features on your Hardware Security Key and are unable to reset the PIN on your behalf.
