have windows 10 pro, with bitlocker.
i hve program that lets me see my destination other machine, also same configuration. I can select a network share using username/password, and copy files from SOURCE to DESTINATION using the share.
NEW machine, Windows 11 HOME, destination machine.
From the windows 10 pro machine, SOURCE, i can SEE the destination machine, in NETWORK, but cannot enter credentials of Username and Password, in this case PIN.
reading various articles, PIN is limited to local machine. That is GOOD for security. (laptop, traveling, etc, and i can limit login attempts)
BUT, if i am at HOME with both machines, that is BAD, as i cannot clone some files form SOURCE to DESTINATION.
Now, apparently, there are ways to turn OFF windows "hello" (Pin/face/fingerprint), and ALLOW a password to log in, and then the SOURCE machine could access the destination machine.
HOW to do this, so that i can set up an easy sequence of steps (ACTIVATE/ALLOW password in addition to windows "hello", clone files to destination from source, then DEACTIVATE password.
WOULD a new password be needed each time, or would the destination machine be able to STORE that password, for use during future re-activation?
WOULD this sequence LESSEN the security of Windows "hello", when windows "hello" is solely activeated, even though the password is stored on the destination, and was used as an alternative login, even if it is currently deactivated?
thanks
