    PIN complexity bugged in Windows 11 domain


    Hello, I just installed Windows 11 and joined the domain. I opened group policy where you can enable PIN sign in and set the complexity. I enabled it and set PIN complexity to 4. Enabling worked, however PIN complexity seems glitched and even though I set the minimum length to 4, it still asks me to have my PIN at least 6 character length.Do you know how to fix this?

    :)

  2. Windows 11 Pin Complexity

    I disconnected all work related accounts. I assumed my local domain policies I have set (pin complexity/etc.) would take affect. They did populate in my local gp policies for the computer so I know my local domain is at least propagating those gp settings. I am very confused as to where windows is now getting my windows hello login settings. It does not make sense or there needs to be a way to set priority. Ill come to terms with living with a 6 digit pin. Some of my employees may not like it as much. Granted now I am concerned any of my local domain policies would be superseded my microsoft being i do not know where the policy setting is coming from.

    I do appreciate the time in your reply.

    Cheers

  3. Windows 11 Pin Complexity

    It appears regardless what settings made either in the registry or GPO, windows 11 will not use them. I attempted to change the pin complexity to 4 digits (min, max, etc) but the system seems to look elsewhere for these settings. I removed all Microsoft accounts as well but i cannot seem to change this. Is there a setting being used due to O365 or live accounts or Azure?

    Thanks

    PIN complexity bugged in Windows 11 domain

    Question regarding Windows PIN & Domain

    Hi, I have few questions for Microsoft employees regarding PINs in Windows.

    • Why Windows PIN option is disabled in domain by default?
    • Is it a good idea to enable PIN in domain? As I understand it's more secure than password as it's directly tied to hardware unlike passwords.
    • Can I enable PIN for all users in domain from the server? Or do I need to do it manually for each user via group policy editor?
    Thank you in advance.
