Open Settings app by clicking its icon in Start menu or pressing Windows logo + I keyboard shortcut. Click on Accounts. Click Sign-in options in the left hand side, and then select Never for the “Require sign-in” option if you want to stop Windows 10 from asking for password after it wakes up from sleep.

This happend to me also years ago when the guy came from the cable company to install our first modem for the cable internet... I hated it!!

I called a friend of mine who is an IT person and he said to goto control panel/Network and remove what the guy put on "CLIENT FOR MICRSOFT NETWORKS"

I did and im thankful!! (Im on Win98se (My favourite OS))

Caroline: I hope what TAF posted worked for you :)

He is, I believe IE6 is his favourite browser and he won't use a site that isn't optimized for it.

Dude111 im on about the password when I turn my pc on for the first time it asked me for a password , I want my computer to just come on straight away .

Dude111 12-04-2020 12:09

Hmmmm is it still doing that??

I wonder if you can do what I did to remove it??

I dont know much about Win10 .. Do you have a NETWORK folder in control panal mate and if you do,whats in it?? (You might be able to disable password logon there)

Press the start menu, type in "netplwiz". Open the program that comes up. You should see an option to turn off the password on start up. Press apply and OK to save. That should do it.

When you deselect the Require Password box, it will ask you to enter your present password and enter a new one. Do so, but leave the new password box empty.

I am running Win 10and running netplwiz does not give me the option to turn off the password at start up.

its a real pain having to remove the passwords on three PCs just because microsoft decided to screw up the update to insist on a password.

Dude111 13-04-2020 12:19

If you change the password to nothing it doesnt disable it?? (Leave it blank)

Try doing this :)

Open Settings.
Click Accounts.
Click on Sign-in options.
Under the "Password" section,click the Change button. ...
Type your current account password.
Click the Next button...
Skip the password creation to remove the password entirely...
Click Finish.
