| 1459730 | 2019-04-02 07:00:00 | Have just installed the Win-10, 1809 (17763.379) and am now asked for a (Windows) password each time I turn on the computer. It works as normal once the password is entered. I have never needed to use a password to sign-in before. How can I delete and stop this requirement every time I open this computer? Thanks in advance. Peter. |

| 1459733 | 2019-04-02 20:04:00 | You can also set it to log into an online account automatically if you want to, just run Netplwiz and set it from there. Then if you want to not require a password when the PC goes to sleep in power options>edit plan settings > advanced power settings you can disable the need for a password on wakeup. Wainui's method is easier and probably more secure though. I think this way does still ask for a password to buy apps from the store but it leaves most things wide open for anyone who has the PC. |
