    Bypass PIN at Log In


    I did a second install of Win 10, dual boot with my old Win 10 install that will eventually just be for recording. The new install will become my "operational" Win 10.

    On my old install it is logged in with my Microsoft account and I have it bypassed via netplwiz. On the new install it forced me to set a PIN for log in. I can't find info on how to bypass the PIN like was done with netplwiz for the Microsoft account. Is there a procedure to bypass the PIN?

    Hello mate,

    Usually, you will have to add the PIN, but you can remove it afterwards.

    Remove PIN from your Account in Windows 10

    Woohoo. That did it, Brink. Thanks. I wonder why Bing search didn't find this.
