    WIN 10 FORCING PIN OR RIDICULOUS LOGIN


    Hi

    I set up a new Lenovo laptop with Win 10 & it asked me to login with my Microsoft account. Then asked me to create PIN. I removed the PIN option, but now it has turned into a 5 step process to start my laptop :

    1. I have to put password of my Microsoft account

    2. Then it asks me to click on my backup email ID

    3. Then it asks me to input my full backup email

    4. Then it sends a code to that email

    5. Then I have to open that email on mobile, get the code & input in this laptop


    Can some one guide me how to get rid of this cumbersome process & just be able to switch on the laptop & get working straightaway?


    I hope someone from Microsoft reads this & fixes it.


    P.S. : I have switched from Win 10 S to Win 10 Home

    :)
