How To Prevent The Use Of Security Questions For Local User Account Windows 10 | Windows 10 Disable Security Questions

How to disable security questions for local accounts on Windows 10
If the security questions aren't something you want in your local account, in this guide, we show you the steps to disable the feature on Windows 10.

On Windows 10, every time you create a new local account, since the April 2018 Update (version 1803), you must set three security questions to ease the process of regaining access to your account from the Sign-in screen in case you forget your password.
Although it's a useful feature to quickly reset your password, the recovery questions can also make your device vulnerable, as a malicious individual might be able to guess your high school name, the city you were born, and your pet's name, for example, to gain unauthorized access to your account and files.
Despite Windows 10 not including a setting to disable the feature, if you use a local account (without a Microsoft account), and you prefer not to use the security questions, you can turn off this functionality using the Local Group Policy Editor or Registry.

One of the biggest problems we face prior to Windows 10 April 2018 update is that we would lose our local user account if we forget the username password in Windows 10. There was not a single way to retrieve the forgotten password in Windows 10. This post will show you how to enable or disable security questions in Windows 10.

Well, this is no longer an issue now if you have applied the Windows 10 April 2018 update version 1803. In this update, Microsoft introduces Security Questions for Windows 10 local account (took them long enough though).
After adding security questions for your Windows 10 local user account, you won’t have to worry about losing your account when you forget your password. You can easily retrieve your password by answering these security questions set by you.
