    Is there a way to disable the pin option on the login screen?


    Current I am in a predicament where I have the option to login via pin and password. I am trying to prevent someone from logging into the computer and I've changed the password. I cannot change the pin so I was wondering if I can just disable that option.

    :)

  2. OSK PIN login on non-touch device

    Hello,

    I suggest you to create a PIN for your device and try the on screen keyboard to login to the same.

    You may follow the steps below to create PIN protection for your device.


    • Go to Settings and select account.

    • Click on sign in option and Go to PIN option.

    • Now click on Add and set PIN for login.

    You can use the same PIN to login to your device using the on screen Keyboard from ease of access option and verify the result.
