Windows 10: How to disable Windows HELLO PIN and all other security options. The "Delete" option under...

Hello


Title pretty much says it all. My goal is to being able to startup my PC remotely without it going through a signin lockscreen. When I startup my PC I want it to go straight to Desktop.



What I've tried already:


I have Windows 10 Home so Group Policy isn't an option. By going to 'netplwiz' and unchecking the checkbox so Users don't have to sign in with username and password my PC kind of adds a new user when I startup afterwards. So when starting up it just immediately says "wrong password" or something like that with a new user with the same name. I can then choose to click on my original account and that account still asks a PIN. After loging in with a PIN and going back to 'netplwiz' and checking the box, there is no new user anymore and it's back to normal. Only asking a PIN for my original account.






My PC is in Dutch but the principle stays the same. In the right bottom 'Delete' 'Verwijderen' in dutch is greyed out.

Disabling User Passwords Disables PIN and Hello?

Hello Eric,

Thank you for posting your concern in Microsoft community and welcome to the windows 10 Family.

From the description provided, I understand that the sign in option is not working after you disabled the option for PIN input for password.

At this point, I would suggest you to deploy the
System Restore option in Windows.

This option takes your PC back to an earlier point in time, called a system restore point. Restore points are generated when you install a new app, driver, or Windows update, and when you

create a restore point manually. Restoring won’t affect your personal files, but it will remove apps, drivers, and updates installed after the restore point was made.

• 
  Right-click (or press and hold) the Start button, and then select Control Panel.
  
• 
  Search Control Panel for Recovery.
  
• 
  Select Recovery > Open System Restore > Next.
  
• 
  Choose the restore point related to the problematic app, driver, or update, and then select
  Next > Finish.
  

In order to disable the PIN sign in option in Windows 10, refer to the below steps.

Step 1: Access PC settings and open
Users and accounts.

Step 2: Select Sign-in options and tap the
Remove button under PIN.

Note: you can navigate to the same path in order to re-enable the PIN.

Hope the above information is helpful. If you need further assistance, we would be happy to help you.

Thank you.

 

Hello & PIN sign-in options missing

Hi,

The Hello (face recognition) and PIN options have disappeared from the sign-in options on my Dell Inspiron running Windows 10.

This occurred after having to resolve a SecureBoot problem - likely to be due to a recent automatic upgrade.

Each time I try and set a new image and new PIN, I get caught in a loop for the PIN and the image for Hello never successfully forces through creation of Hello and PIN sign-in options.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

BArry
