HP Client Security Wants Windows Password.jpgWhy does the HP Client Security ask me to enter my Windows password, and NOT my Windows login PIN ?

Not sure why I even want to bother using HP Client Security, but I have run into this issue every time I get a  prompt making me use the HP Client Security.

I take it that HP Client Security is NOT smart enough to ask for a PIN, instead of an old Windows login password.

 

I never created a Windows Login password on this "new" computer because I was told that a PIN is better security.

 

Not sure I can even create a password so that I could use either.

I figured I would ask for some help... or maybe I should just uninstall the HP Client Security ?

What's it good for ?
