This policy setting allows you to require a pin for pairing. If you set this to 'Never', a pin isn't required for pairing. If you set this to 'First Time', the pairing ceremony for new devices will always require a PIN. If you set this to 'Always', all pairings will require PIN. Fix: (1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Connect\Require pin for pairing (2) REG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Connect!RequirePinForPairing
