    Cannot set 4 Digit Pin to log into Windows


    Hello,I am trying to change my PIN to log into Windows. I only want it as a 4 digit pin as it's a personal computer at home and I am not worried about someone hacking it. When I try to reset it to 4 digits, it tells me "Provide a PIN that meets the complexity requirements. Your PIN must be at least 6 characters long". screenshot below I thought this was due to Group Policy settings, but when checking the Group Policy Settings screenshot below, they are set to default not configured allowing 4 digit PIN's to be used. Any insight would be appreciated.

    :)
