On my Acer laptop I have W11 & would like to know if I can get to my desktop with out a PIN/passcode or ??? Thanks, ask if more info needed

I have not used 11 yet but I heard that you couldn't setup Windows 11 without making a Microsoft account which would definitely require a password.

Edit: That might be only true for the Home version and might be different on Pro and/or Enterprise version of 11.

Ok, I already had a MS account so I used that. Now I'm forced to use a PIN to get in .

Disregard, don't know what I did, but its fixed now

Hello Kshipper,

No, you can easily login without Microsoft account and by setting up the local account. But this feature is only available in the Windows 11 Pro edition.

Hope it helps

I use Windows Hello face recognition with pin as backup on all my devices.
