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?

    It's for security, and the reasons are good.

    If your desktop is stolen, the power turns off. When the thieves plug it in, they don't know your password so the files in your account are secure. So are all the websites that open automatically as you have your passwords stored in Edge -- perhaps retirement accounts and similar.
