    Forced pin as Login, Automatic Profile naming


    Look this isn' rocket science microsoft.I can no longer use password related features on my pc because you decided pins were the way to go. And for what? Pins are the exact same as a password. You can use all the same characters.What garbage.I need my pc to automatically log in.This feature is unavailable in netplwiz when pins are forced.I need to connect my 3 pcs together in my home office. I can no longer do this since my format today, as to do it, all pcs need to share the same Username and password.Stop this nonsense

    :)
