Windows 11 - How do I remove sign in/pin at start up COMPLETELY?

There is not one single one of these stupid things you typed available! If you can't give step by step directions, then leave it for the professional! I now have 8 tabs open looking for the accounts, and sign in options. Where the hell are they?

If you have home edition you cannot run "Launch netplwiz" 

Netplwiz.exe is a tool in Windows for managing user accounts on Windows 10/11. It is a Windows Run command that allows users to remove the need for a password during login. With this command, you can disable password login or turn off automatic login on Windows

While primarily designed for convenience, improper use of Netplwiz.exe, such as enabling automatic login on shared systems, can pose security risks. It is particularly useful for advanced users or administrators to streamline account configurations without navigating multiple settings menus.

only way to use it is to upgrade to windows 11 pro.

Microsoft has done it this way to make money But if you've ever looked into buying a copy of Windows 11 Pro, you'll know just how costly it can be. Buy it directly from Microsoft, and it costs a whopping $200. Thankfully, there are ways to get the same software for considerably less. but Microsoft claims it is free

The upgrade to Windows 11 is free from Microsoft. However, the Windows 11 upgrade download is large in size. Internet providers might charge fees for large downloads that occur over metered connections. To upgrade to Windows 11, devices must meet the Windows 11 minimum system requirements.

I hope this helps

I might be dumb but what is "Launch netplwiz" and where is it??

Hi Emily,

(sigh) How do I undo this change, and bring back the PIN requirement to login?

Regretfully,

Matt

Emily: Thanks fir the procedure. I will give it a try.

Got disconnected from Pratyush with the same question.
