[SOLVED] How to stop Win 10 Auto sign in and or Windows Hello

[50bmg]

I just installed a new win 10 pro 64 build 19041.

1. I cant get rid of the sign in at boot.

What i have tried:

1. The NETPLWIZ does not have the check box
2. Windows settings does not have a Windows Hello button.
3. Disabling Windows Hello in GREDIT.MSC didnt work.

2. This win install created 3 separate accounts. Myname, Admin and Myname@yahoo.com. (Myname is not real). How can i consolidate Myname and Admin accounts.



Thanks

I tried turning off Windows hello in the registry. That didnt work either.

So this doesn't help?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\PasswordLess\Device\DevicePasswordLessBuildVersion is set to 2 (which means ON according to the tutorial). Setting it to 0 restores the checkbox in Netplwiz.

I hadnt seen that suggestion anywhere. Regardless it worked. Thanks
