Windows 11
After disabling the Win 11 Lock Screen and Password
under user accounts.
It was working fine for the entire day and then overnight I woke up the PC and I had to login with my password and it forced me to
create a new pin.
Under "Accounts"
I had to remove the pin option again.
But Win is still asking for a password.

Is it possible to make this perminent?

Here is what I used originally.

CMD (adm)
reg ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\PasswordLess\Device" /v DevicePasswordLessBuildVersion /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
Then
netplwiz
Then under user accounts I disabled enter password.
And it was working.
There was a windows update overnight and the first screen I encountered was the password screen.

Will that option change after every update?

Usually, an update will not affect netplwiz. However, updates have been known to reset things sometimes.
