I've been given the job of installing Windows 11 on remote workers laptops. I do a fresh installation of Windows 11 as an admin user from the media creation tool. Then I have to create a new user account for the final end user of the laptop who's going to work on it remotely. This is with a Microsoft 365 managed work account, not a personal account. During the installation of the end user's account I have been asked to skip setting up the Windows Hello PIN - and leave this for the end user to do that I send the laptop to after configuring it for them. Before sending it out, I have to login to the laptop as the end user, and make sure it's all configured and set up for them to use straight away. I have been asked to skip setting up the Windows Hello PIN - but I cannot figure out a way to do that. Is there some way of skipping this step please as the PIN is a company required policy and cannot be removed under Settings > Other Accounts? Or can I setup the PIN then deleted it when the laptop is configured and ready to send to the end user? That way the real end user can set a PIN of their choice then? From what I've read online - this might be a workable way to remove the PIN Deleting the NGC Folder: Some users have found success by deleting the NGC folder, which stores PIN data. This might require taking ownership of the folder and doing it in Safe Mode.
