  1. Domain policies resets my PIN


    I have fresh installed PC connected to domain. In domain all Hello features seems to be enabled and functional tested on other PCs. On my PC, I can setup PIN and it works fine. But after 1-2 hours it resets and is gone. It seems that every global policy sync disables this. Checked folder C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Ngc and after PIN is created, there is GUID folder with data. After a while, folder is removed and PIN is gone. I set up event logging and there is always record that LOCAL SERVICE NT AUTHORITY just deleted whole folder.But why? How to check w

    Question regarding Windows PIN & Domain

    Hi, I have few questions for Microsoft employees regarding PINs in Windows.

    • Why Windows PIN option is disabled in domain by default?
    • Is it a good idea to enable PIN in domain? As I understand it's more secure than password as it's directly tied to hardware unlike passwords.
    • Can I enable PIN for all users in domain from the server? Or do I need to do it manually for each user via group policy editor?
    Thank you in advance.

    Issue with PIN Policy

    I had an issue where I added a new Microsoft account that has corporate/domain policies to my personal computer. When setting up Teams I mistakenly agreed to let the domain policies apply to my computer. Immediately settings changed and one of the things
    that happened was I had to change my pin due to the policy change. I have since removed my device from the domain and confirmed with the domain admin that my device is not registered but I cannot change my PIN settings. When I go to look at the policies I
    see this:


    Domain policies resets my PIN 56a1cce2-f79c-4e2c-bbc2-1465c2ebf014?upload=true.png


    But when I go to change to my PIN back to what it was originally I get this:


    Domain policies resets my PIN 4ee79238-1371-4752-beed-a583f64fae1a?upload=true.png


    I don't understand why this would be and can only assume that there are still some domain policies applying. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated.

    Domain policies resets my PIN

    UnattendedJoin error: failed to find the domain data (0x6e)

    Thanks for the suggestion! I don't want to add a domain account, as this is a generic unattended install that will be used for all company machines. Do you think it's possible that the computer would join the domain if, instead of using UnattendedJoin in specialize, I used your steps but left out the specific account?

    The other thing I was thinking was to use a generic account to allow the domain join during the specialize step. I added a machine password in the UnattendedJoin component, and instead of getting the error listed above, I got an authentication error, which makes me think I could probably do a secure join instead of the unsecure join.

    Thoughts?
