    sign in options


    Hi


    Im having problems to change my settings in terms of needing a pin or password on signing in

    There are no such options for me on windows 10, there is no option of pin at all allthough i have a pin now, so its nonsense only windows hello pin, but this is a seperate kind of pin also when i log in to microsoft here it says i cant login through my work account, but thats the only one i have lol, but thats a different issue. Also there is no ability to change if a password is needed or not, only to change the password.

    I tried so many ways on internet, but in each case its not possible on my version


    I'd recommend changing this, in the meantime- any ideas how to solve this on windows 10 pro?

    :)

    password sign in

    Hi,

    About your concern with typing the password after being idle, it is actually recommended to activate for security reasons.

    If you wish to disable it, I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    • Go to Settings.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Click on Sign in options.
    • On the right side, you will see required sign in.
    • Change it to Never.

    Let us know how it goes.
