How to remove "Sign-in options" from the Power Button menu? - Microsoft Q&A (2024)
Hello there,
If you want to limit access to certain sign-in options from the Power Button menu, you might consider adjusting the settings related to these options instead of removing them entirely. Here's what you can do:
Go to "Accounts" and then select "Sign-in options" from the left sidebar.
Depending on the options you want to disable (e.g., PIN, fingerprint, facial recognition), you can set up a Group Policy or local policy to prevent users from adding or using those sign-in options.
Group Policy (Windows Pro and Enterprise editions):
Press Win + R, type gpedit.msc, and press Enter to open the Group Policy Editor.
Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Logon.
Look for policies related to the sign-in options you want to manage. For example, you might find settings for "Turn off PIN sign-in" or "Turn off ****** recognition and enhanced sign-in."
Enable the policies you want to apply.
