On new computer w Windows 11 home. At Settings>Accounts>Sign-in options everything is greyed out. Says 'Some of these settings are managed by your organization'

Sign in without p/w issue

Did a clean install of Windows 10 and updated it to the version shown.
Trying to eliminate the need for p/w at sign in, I ran netplwiz as I have always done.

Top USER ACCOUNTS is from the Install I've been upgrading for a long time
Bottom USER ACCOUNTS is from today's clean install on another machine

There is no:
"Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" to uncheck
in the clean install
I have never seen this before and can't by pass the sign in p/w step

Any suggestions greatly appreciated

 

Microsoft account sign in option missing

I have a local account with a sign in password for boot up.

After a recent major MS update, I no longer have an option to sign in at boot up using my Microsoft account.

When I go to Settings > Accounts > Sign in options ... this is what I see.

Any suggestions to resovle this and restore MS account sign in?

If I go to Email app accounts > Add an account ... A new window flashes on the screen and disappears.

 

Microsoft account Sign in option under user account is not working

Hi NAvneet.

Many thanks for your help. But this didn't work.

Should I try the below procedure. Someone has suggested this method to similar query in other thread. Pls suggest:

Please follow the steps to enable the build in administrator and check if it helps:

• Use the power button on the sign-in screen to Shift+Restart. This will take you to the recovery boot menu.
  
• Click Troubleshoot, Advanced options, Startup settings. When given the choice of startup options, try booting the PC in
  Safe Mode with Command Prompt. If you can’t get there, skip to the next major step.
  
  • If you can get to a CMD window, enable the built-in administrator account:
    
    net user administrator /active:yes
    
  • Then restart and sign-in as the Administrator account.
  • Once in the Administrator account, open Regedit
    and go to the following key:
    
    HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\StoredIdentities
  • Save a backup of the key: Export the StoredIdentities key to a .REG file on the desktop.
    
  • Then continue with step 4 below.
• Use boot media to access the recovery command prompt.
  
  • Start Regedit.
  • Select the HKEY_USERS key.
  • Click File, Load Hive. and go up in the file system to This PC. Then browse to this file and then click Open:
    
    C:\Windows\System32\config\DEFAULT
  • When prompted, name it “def”
  • Select this key:
    
    HKEY_USERS\def\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\StoredIdentities
  • Save a backup of the key: Export the StoredIdentities key to a .REG file on the C:\ drive.
    
• Find the subkey under StoredIdentities that matches the name of the Microsoft Account.
  
• Delete the key.
• If you loaded the offline registry hive, go back up in the tree on the left and select “def”. Then click File,
  Unload hive. This option will only be available if “def” is selected.
  
• Restart the PC and test sign-in.
• Once done, you may need to Verify the account in Settings, Accounts in order for it to be fully usable in Windows again.
  
• If you used the built-in Administrator account to resolve the issue, please return it to the default disabled state to help keep the Computer secure. To do so follow the steps:
  net user administrator /active:no

Please create a new administrator account using the Microsoft Account and check.
