Windows must hate me: A startup story

Recommended Posts

With Windows 11, they really don't want you to disable pin and password log in. You turn off pin and it demands you create a new one on a restart. I cannot find a way to set Launchbox to start without requiring a keyboard to log in first.

Reimaging to windows 10 is always an option for my mini PC, that's a little more flexible with log-in settings. But before I nuke my drive back to Windows 10, anyone have workarounds to launch 11 directly to Launchbox on startup without logging in with a pin/password? If BigBox is kiosk-ready, it might be worth the price.

This was a short story.
