STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS

Before you start

    If you just updated Windows, install the "Optional updates" under Settings > Windows Update > Advanced options.

Update Process

Windows 11 Home
  1. Open Settings and go to Account Settings.
  2. Click “Accounts” in the left sidebar, then choose Sign-in options.
  3. Remove Windows Hello. This can be Facial Recognition (Windows Hello Face) and PIN (Windows Hello PIN).

  4. Enter your current password to confirm.

    Note: If you are trying to remove your PIN, you must have another sign-in method (like a password) already set up. It is recommended to add a local account or another windows account. Otherwise, Windows will not allow you to remove the PIN.

    For a local account, you can go to “Settings” > “Accounts” and select “Sign in with a local account”.
