For Remove forgot pin button from lock screen in fw 4.38.23429, if this one doesn't work
Code:
  - BaseAddress: 0x19A3582 # qss/PinCodeInputDialog.qss
then this one should
Code:
  - BaseAddress: 0x19B3C6E # qss/PinCodeInputDialog.qss
Sorry for any confusion arising from my previous lack of appreciation of the difference between removing the "Forgot your PIN?" message from the lock screen or removing the same message from enabling/disabling Parental Controls.

@JSWolf,
The same confusion/mistake will also be present in the fw 4.43.23418 nickel.yaml BaseAddress "correction" I gave you. Do you want the new correct version or do you want to wait since fw 4.44.23552 is already out. Now I know what I'm looking for the same mistake shouldn't happen again.

Another option would be to tweak and rename the Remove forgot pin button from lock screen patch so that the unwanted "Forgot your PIN?" message is simultaneously removed from both the lock screen and parental controls widgets so that it wouldn't be necessary to figure out by trial and error which BaseAddress belongs to PinCodeInputDialog.qss and which belongs to ParentalControlPinCodeVerifyView.qss. Unfortunately both qss files are identical and without @geek1011's input I have no way of knowing which is which, other than trial and error.

As I don't use a PIN for anything Kobo-related I don't know whether removing the message in both places has a downside.
