Windows 10: Picture/Pin Password for AD accounts

Hello,


I've introduced Picture password and Pins for a few users within my organisation, however, I am interested in setting it up for the whole company but on the AD network level.


Currently, the users are setting this up via the Local account, meaning that any time they move which is fairly common the users will have to set up the picture password/ pin all over again.


Any help of this will be appreciated.


Thanks


Bradley

Setup PIN password on Windows 10

Hello Bob,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

I understand your requirement in this regard.

Currently we don't have an option to access the Microsoft account without a password. However you can access it either through Microsoft account password or PIN password or Picture password. Suggest you to try again setting up the PIN password by following
the below steps.

* Press Windows key, type Settings
into the search space and select the same from the list.

* Click on Accounts and select
Sign-in options

* Go to
PIN section, click Add. Confirm your Microsoft account password when it prompt.

* Then setup desired PIN password as required. But ensure to click Eye symbol
(I.e. Reveal Password) to ensure that the entered PIN is correct and matches.

Alternatively you can also setup Picture password. On the same
Sign-in options window, you can find an option to set Picture password.
With a picture password, you can sign in to your PC with your favorite photo instead of a hard-to-remember password. You choose the picture, which gestures—circles, straight lines, or taps—you use, and where on the picture you trace them. You
can draw a picture password directly on a touchscreen with your finger, or you can use a mouse to draw your shapes. Everyone who has a Microsoft account on your PC can set up their own picture password.

Keep us posted if you require further assistance.
