Windows version: Win 11, 22H2 Firstly, I have a user, named "user01", I've setup facial here, Then, I removed the user01 and create my current user, Now when I try to setup Facial on this user, Windows throw error message and I can't remove the old facial. and in Control Panel/User Account, my old account has been removed so I can't connect there to remove the facial

So, How could I remove the facial recognition for a deleted account?

Sorry, something went wrong
It looks like you've already set up Windows Hello on another account. Remove face recognition from
your other account, and then try again.

Sorry for my bad searching skill, After some minutes jumping around over internet, I found the answer

  1. Click Start. Type Services and select it from the list of results.
  2. Right-click the Windows Biometrics Service from the list and click Stop.
  3. Open File Explorer. Navigate to this location: C:\Windows\System32\WinBioDatabase.
  4. Delete all the .DAT files in the folder. If you can't see anything in the folder, click the View tab in File Explorer and check Hidden Items.
  5. After deleting the .DAT files, try setting up Windows Hello again.
