Windows 10: Disable Windows 10 Password

Hi,


I have an issue with disabling Windows 10 (Pro) password.


I'm signing in with current Microsoft account.


“Settings” -> “Accounts” -> “Sign-in options” -> “Require sign-in” is set to Never

In netplwiz "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" is unchecked.

Also, I tried disabling the lock screen following https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-windows-10-lock-screen


On start up password is not required, but if I lock my screen (e.g. Win + L) it asks me for the password and sometimes it forces me to set up a PIN, although I disabled it under Group Policy Editor -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Logon -> Turn on convenience PIN sign in


Is there any registry key I need to change maybe? Please help, it's just unbearable.


Thank you.

:)

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
