  1. Why is there a stupid requirement to force you to set up a pin while blocking you to do so...


    Yeah, a pin on local device for security. So what? It only leads to "just wait a moment" and that takes forever. If you press Alt+Tab you will see the hidden window for setting up a pin, but you cannot do anything. I have gotten 3 laptop/PCs in the pass few years and this has happened 3 times. I have to try to enter the Recovery Environment and then try safe mode/reset/totally reinstall to finally use the device! Why should consumers pay for Microsoft's **** aesthetic taste? Why not fix the bug or just give suggestion to set up a pin after log in the PC instead of forcing users to set up a pin at the beginning?

  2. Why am I being forced to change my PIN?

    It is possible that PIN Complexity Group Policy is enabled. You can enforce a policy where users will be required to create a strong complex PIN to sign in. The Group Policy Editor is available in Windows 10 Pro, Windows 10 Enterprise, and
    Windows 10 Education editions only. To configure PIN Complexity Group Policy in Windows 10, follow these steps:

    • Press Windows key + R, type gpedit.msc and press Enter.
    • Navigate to the following setting:

      Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates >
      Windows Components > Windows Hello for Business >
      PIN Complexity
    • Here you will see the following settings that are available:
      • Require digits
      • Require lowercase letters
      • Maximum PIN length
      • Minimum PIN length
      • Expiration
      • History
      • Require special characters
      • Require uppercase letters
    • Double-click on each of the settings to open the configuration box. Go through the options carefully before you enable or disable them.

    Once you enable or disable these policies, users will be required to change the PIN and depending on the policies you have set, users will see the PIN requirements that you may have set.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    how to bypass stupid bluetooth pin requirement?

    Trying to pair bluetooth headphones. but of course it needs a pin when the headphones didnt come with one >.>

    Dont tell me to reinstall/disable/update/ect the drivers because I did all that

    Don't tell me to try the 000000 or 111111 pin because I cant enter a pin. The computer shows me a pin and says "compare and confirm" There is no option to enter a pin.

    Don't tell me to try "adding to personal network" "use devicewizard" or "add a device" non of these work they all require a pin

    I spent $30 on these headphones and the work just fine when pairing to my cell phone(where guess what it doesnt require a dumb pin)

    I am on windows 10 home, the computer is an HP notebook and I have the most recent windows update(as much as i didnt want it, I have it anyway)

    I have tried every single little fix you can find on these forums/youtube/and the internet nothing works so tell me how to bypass the stupid thing entirely
