With the latest update (OS Build 19043.1288) of Windows 10, you should notice that your PC/Laptop login screen does not show the other log-in options. Like if you have enabled the pin login method then Windows shows only the pin login method on the Windows login screen.
Now, there are various methods to fix this issue. But I found a simple method during my use to fix it and if you are thinking about why causing the issue with your PC or Laptop, there is one reason for that and that’s you have “Clean Installed” the latest version of Windows 10.
When you open the settings and see the sign-in options you won’t see the traditional “Password” method and “Picture Password” methods for signing in to the system. So, how are we going to fix the “Missing Windows Sign-in Options on Windows 10?” for that please follow these simple steps to fix it.
Steps to Fix Missing Login Options on Windows 10
