Hi

I recently upgraded my home PC to Windows 11, did the tweek where you untick the box to allow me to boot into windows without the need for a pin or password, but all it does is create another account which then tells me that the log in pin/password is incorrect, I still have to choose the previous account and enter my pin to log in. Is there a work around to do stop this from happening?

Cheers
 
When creating a local account with Windows 11 you can simply press enter on the enter password screen to skip it. According to what I'm seeing you should be able to do the same thing when changing your password, I'm not positive how this will react with a Microsoft Account if you have yours connected though (since that obviously requires a password).
