After installing a feature update, Windows greets you with the let's finish setting up your device screen. It's part of Windows's Welcome Experience and lets you set up your PC with Windows Hello, Microsoft 365 subscription, and other customizations.

However, occasionally, you may continue to see the welcome screen even when you perform a regular sign-in reminding you to finish the setup. If you find this notification annoying, here is how to disable the "let's finish setting up your device" screen in Windows 11.

  2. In the right pane, click on Notifications.
  3. Scroll down to the end of the page and unselect the Offer suggestions on how I can set up my device option.
  4. On the older version of Windows 11, unselect the Show me the Windows welcome experience after updates and occasionally when I sign in to highlight what's new and suggested option.

Windows 11 will now no longer show the "let's finish setting up your device" screen when you sign in next time.
