First of all - STOP "PROTECTING" US.

I do not want to have to enter a pin every single time I use my computer.

So please tell me how I remove this option COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY!

And for gods sake - treat people like adult and STOP trying to "hide" these options.

Its my computer, not yours!

    1. First, go to Settings > Accounts > Sign in options, scroll down to mid page, under "Additional Settings",Make sure "For improved security, only allow Windows Hello Sign-in for Microsoft accounts on this device (Recommended). " is turned OFF.

    The "For improved security, only allow Windows Hello Sign-in for Microsoft accounts on this device" is greyed out and I can't turn it off. Why is it blocking me?

    I just followed the procedure from EmilyS726 dated October 12, 2023. It worked as I had hoped. Too bad Microsoft could not make it easy without having to go to Support or the Community.

    Thank you, Emily, for the procedure.
