    Windows 10 login without user account and pwd or pin code

    I have Lenovo laptop and Windows 10.

    When I boot my laptop, I will get error message: "User account or password wrong. Try again"

    This message comes under my full name and user account and pwd.

    What is this user account and pwd. I haven't created any.

    Luckily there is another option where is my
    full name and pin code (but no user account).

    When I enter pin code I can login into the Windows.

    [That pin code seems to be the same code which Microsoft asked to create a couple of days ago.

    I thought that this short pin code helps me to get rid of long MS pwds, which I have many for private and company purposes.

    But I didn't understand that I have to enter that pin code every time I'm login into my laptop!]

    I have already done netplwiz -command
    from Windows-> Run, but no effect.

    I also tried from Control Panel to edit my own admin / owner account, but cannot do anything.

    I would like to login into Windows without any user account and pwd or pin code?

    What are the right steps in this situation?
