Fix: Sign-in Options Not Showing on Windows 10 Login Screen

Windows 10 allows you to sign in to your device with many different options, such as password, PIN, fingerprint, face, picture password, etc. If you have set two or more sign-in options for your account, in general, a "Sign-in options" button will appear on the Windows 10 login screen, allowing you to switch between sign-in options.

However, for some reasons, the Sign-in Options disappear from the login screen, causing inconvenience to Windows 10 users.

"I recently updated my Windows 10 using the Media Creation Tool. I did not encounter any problem during the update. After the update was complete, I tried to enter my PIN but there was no "Sign-in options" under my account name and I was forced to use my full password to log in. Tried several reboots, but there is still no "sign-in options" at the login screen. Any assistance in getting my sign-in options back would be appreciated."

If you have the same problem, don't worry. Here are some effective ways to help fix this problem.

Fix Sign-in options not showing on Windows 10 login screen

Way 1: Disable "Require Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts"

If you use a Microsoft account to sign in to Windows 10, by default, Windows 10 only allows Windows Hello sign-in. In this case, there will be no Password sign-in option on the login screen. In the event that you set only one Windows Hello sign-in option (PIN, Face, or Fingerprint), the "Sign-in options" button won't show up on the login screen. To make Sign-in options appear on the login screen, just disable the option "Require Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts". To do so, go to Settings > Accounts > Sign-in options, and then turn off the button under "Require Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts".

Way 2: Change related services

It has been proven that certain services may be responsible for Sign-in options missing from the login screen or the Sign-in options in the Settings app not working/loading. Here is how to fix this problem.

Step 1: Press the Windows logo key and R at the same time to open the Run dialog box. Type services.msc in the Run box and hit Enter to open the Services app built in Windows 10.
