Once that's done, your Windows Hello options should no longer be grayed out.

On the same screen, you click the Add button under the Password heading and create a password (or a PIN for Windows 11). Note that if the 'Set up' button is grayed out, it's because you must set up a system password before you can use other sign-in options. If you have a supported camera, you'll see the option to set it up (likewise if you have a supported fingerprint sensor). To check if your laptop has a supported webcam, click on the box labeled 'Facial recognition (Windows Hello).' If the camera isn't supported, you'll see the message 'We couldn't find a camera compatible with Windows Hello Face' appear directly under the box. Once you're on the sign-in options screen, you'll see the Windows Hello options available to you.

Using the Windows search bar or press the Windows key plus S, type 'sign-in options.' You can also ask Cortana for sign-in options if you have it activated. If you're not entirely sure what, if any, Windows Hello support your computer has, it's simple to check.
