    Netplwiz to automatically logon to Windows using PIN.

    I'm sure this question has been asked many times. I use Netplwiz on all my systems to do the auto logon routine. Microsoft has made it very difficult to update or upgrade a system without agreeing to use a PIN. I understand it is the more secure option. However, I can't seem to find a "tutorial" explaining exactly what steps to take to eliminate auto logon using my Microsoft Password and replace it with the PIN auto logon using Netplwiz. Help appreciated.

    Netplwiz to automatically logon to Windows using PIN.

    Because you shouldn't be able to. Not much sense in setting up a more secure level login using a PIN, and then having it auto login with no user intervention ... Come to that, there's not much sense in setting up a passworded account and using auto login, either.

    PIN Logon Greyed Out

    Hello,

    Try these steps:

    1. Open Registry Editor.
    2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System.
    3. Set AllowDomainPINLogon to 1.
    4. Close Registry Editor and reboot your system.
    See if you can add PIN now.

    Hope this helps!
