Windows 10: How do I remove the startup pin option on Windows 11? My PC says that Windows Hello isn't...

My PC says that Windows Hello isn't available for my organization, but the pin option still appears on the login screen. It won't let me change it, because it says that it isn't available. What do I do?

Can't get GPU-Z to start with Windows 8.1 startup

I'm not sure how to do that. Could you list the steps for a noob?

 

Sign-in option with PIN (Windows Hello)

Hi Sergei__________1,

I'm Amr, an independent advisor.

If you use a Microsoft account to access Windows 11, the button to remove the PIN could appear greyed out.

The remove button could be greyed out if the passwordless option is enabled on the Windows 11 account or if the passwordless account is enabled on your Microsoft account.

Disable Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts

Use these steps:

Open Settings.

Click on Accounts.

Click the Sign-option tab.

Under the “Additional settings” section, turn off the “For improved security, only allow Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft account on this device” toggle switch.

You may need to restart the Settings app and the computer to apply the changes and enable the option to remove the PIN.

Disable passwordless Microsoft account

Kindly follow these steps:

Open Settings.

Click on Accounts.

Click the Your info tab.

Under the “Related settings” section, click the Accounts option.

Click the Security tab.

Click on Advanced security options.

Under the “Additional security” section, turn off the Passwordless account option.

Continue with the on-screen directions.

Restart your computer.

After you complete the steps, the “PIN (Windows Hello)” setting will show the remove button on Windows 11.

I hope this is helpful. If you require any additional assistance, don't hesitate to respond to this.

Best Regard

Amr
