When I go to the "remove pin", the button is grayed out. I contacted HP tech support & they said that's a software issue. I was able to turn it off in Win 10, but when I rec'd my new laptop that was supposed to have Win 10 installed, it turned out to be Win 11. Anyone have a fix?

    If thieves steal my PC then it means that I will be dead so it won't matter. It is stupid that we are treated like little children. It's my life, my computer and should be my option. I am going to investigate a way to do away with Microsoft all together or find a go around the system option.

    Paula, IT DOES NOT WORK. As I have stated earlier, I have talked to Microsoft personnel, and it can not be done in windows 11. It is a safety feature for "our protection". I have family member who works for microsoft and he got me in touch with several people and he checked himself. Thank you for all your input.

    Now the real question is how do i stop this thread? ahahaha
