How to login windows remote desktop (RDP) in windows 11 when Microsoft account and Hello Pin enabled?

I have googled this 10 hours without finding any useful working solutions. I just fresh installed Windows 11. During the installation, it forces me to use Microsoft account and Windows Hello Pin. And some services also require Hello Pin. Thus I can not disable it.

Now, when I try to use remote desktop, there is a problem. I can not connect. I have no ideas what causes the connection failure. I even not sure what my username is. Is Pin the password? I don't have any password actually. Even microsoft acount web login is using one time password sent to my email. Do I need to provide domain information?

I tried username [email protected], PCNAME\mylon, mylon, Administrator because mylong is my user folder.

I have no ideas what the password is, so I used my Windows Hello Pin.

So far, I have made RDP work by simply disabling Windows Hello Pin.

I have no ideas why Microsoft invents something which does NOT work at all. Especially, Hello Pin is forced to be enabled during installation process and shows as recommended sign-in option in the settings.



Top Answer/Comment:

On a fresh install of Windows 11, password use is disabled.

You can easily enable passwords and that will likely help you on the machine you are trying to RDP into because you will be able to use your password.

Then you can use your Microsoft Account.

See the screen shot with the appropriate settings.

Uncheck the security setting shown.

Enable Passwords

Logout and login with password (not PIN) at least once before RDP access.

Once you login with a password once, you can re-enable the Hello sign-in if you want and still use the password with RDP.

The fix is logging in once with the password.
