Hi @GreenGran,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.  


Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

If you want to disable the sign-in PIN on an HP desktop running Windows, you can follow these steps.

 

Open Settings:

  • Click on the Start button (Windows icon) in the bottom-left corner of your screen.
  • Select "Settings" (it looks like a gear/cogwheel).

Navigate to Accounts:

  • In the Settings window, select "Accounts."

Access Sign-in Options:

  • In the left sidebar, click on "Sign-in options."

Remove PIN:

  • Under the "Manage how you sign in to your device" section, you should see an option for "Windows Hello PIN."
  • Click on "Remove" or "Change" and follow the on-screen instructions to either remove or change the PIN.

Verify Your Identity:

  • You might be asked to enter your current PIN to confirm your identity.

Restart your computer:

  • Once you have removed or changed the PIN, it's a good idea to restart your computer to apply the changes.

 

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
