    Windows 11 update removed my laptop password & now requires PIN #, can I install Windows...


    For 4yrs, I’ve used a password to log into my HP laptop. 2 weeks ago, Windows 11performed an update without warning me to create a PIN before the install or to check to see if my Microsoft security info was up to date. The update removed my password & REQUIRES a PIN number or fingerprint. The login verification code that is sent is going to my OLD phone number. So, now Microsoft have taken my rights away from my OWN laptop! Where do I go from here?how can I undo this update?- I went into recovery & tried to uninstall the quality updates, I’m not sure if it worked or not. -error receive

  2. REMOVE PIN AND PASSWORD REQUIREMENT PERMANENTLY

    I purchased a new laptop and after setting it up with no option during the setup to decline a password and PIN I finally got to use it. Now Win 11 WILL NOT let me remove the password or pin requirements. I DO NOT want a password OR a pin to sign in. I simply wish to open my laptop while it sits on my desk and go right to work. I have tried each and every solution available online to remove them to no avail. In all this frustration I have forgotten the login password and can not get any further in settings than the requirement to enter your password to change settings. So, DO NOT Tell me I must reset the entire laptop and lose everything on it in order to set up the laptop again without a password or PIN. You did not give me the option to NOT use a password or PIN from the beginning. SO, HOW DO I REMOVE THIS REQUIREMENT? HOW DO I RECOVER OR CHANGE THE PASSWORD ON THE LAPTOP? JUST WHAT HOOPS AND HAND SIGNALS< CODE WORDS AND BLOOD SAMPLES DOES MICROSOFT NEED TO FIX THIS??????

  3. I want to remove the PIN and Password sign-in requirement for Windows 11.

    I want to remove the PIN and Password sign-in requirement for Windows 11. Not from a local account, from my Microsoft account. But it will not accept my Microsoft password. Even after I have changed it several times, it still will not accept the new password. But I can sign in to my Microsoft account, no problem. How can I fix this error? How else can I remove the password/PIN sign-in requirement. Thank you
