Windows 10 Improving Consistency of Facial Recognition on Dell Inspiron 5000 Series in Windows 10

[Jeff Packer]

Facial Recognition in Windows 10 works fine on occasion. Most times it does not work, and I need to use either pin or pw. The computer is a Dell Inspiron 5000 series and is new. What can I do so that it works consistently?

Hi

I just use the pin number, it's fast and easy.
But I have my computer set up to log in without asking.

I haven't tried the facial recognition thing but if it's as dodgy as Cortana I'm not surprised that it doesn't work all the time.

To make Windows boot directly...

Hit Windows Key + R.

In the Run window type...

netplwiz

Uncheck the box that requires a login, say OK, and enter your password.
