    Windows 11 ALWAYS require PIN to login cannot use fingerprint.


    Hi,I have Windows 11 on my brand new Samsung laptop Galaxy Book 2 Pro 360.I have an issue regarding logging in.I used to be able to either PIN or fingerprint to log in. I often used fingerprint and occasionally used PIN.However, after many Windows and Samsung updates, Windows 11 now always require PIN to log in. Every time I scan my fingerprint I registered, Windows 11 only gives me the message that my PIN is required to log in. Say, I cannot use my fingerprint to log-in.I tried to remove PIN as a alternative solution, but "remove" button is disabled in "Remove this sign-in option" under PIN

    :)

    PIN is required to login

    I used to login windows with my fingerprint.

    But now it required to login with my PIN and I forgot my PIN (even didn't remember that I set a PIN or not)

    I check on "forget PIN" but no response.

    I scan fingerprint and it required my PIN....

    How can I login with my fingerprint only?

    cant login with pin or fingerprint

    Hello, I bought a new laptop a few days ago. Everything works normally when i set a fingerprint or a pin and it works normally when it wwant authentication on a mirosoft store, but my login to windows does not work. pin login is not displayed at all and

    Windows 11 ALWAYS require PIN to login cannot use fingerprint.

    Windows 10 login screen message PIN required

    Dear MS,

    I am unable to get past the hello login screen. I am told my PIN is required to login yet below there appears the contradictory message ‘ something happened and your pin is unavailable ‘. I have tried reverting to fingerprint but am met with my PIN is required.
    Sadly, i have forgotten my password. ( I am using a local account i think - but notice that the photo icon on my windows hello screen is the same as my windows profile photo.)

    help
