when i start my pc, I like it so it boots directly to my desktop without asking for a pw. I used the RUN>netplwiz option, unticked the "user must enter pw", enterered my pw ok 2X and click on ok 2X and it is still asking for a pw. I tried this a few times and rebooted as well 2x and it is still asking for it. How do I solve this issue? thx
When a pc is locked up and a password is needed to get desktop back. How can i disable it so it wont be needed. TIA
Do you mean when you sign out from windows and get the lock screen ? This is getting confusing merged tread hehe but netpwiz is a way or admin account indeed
The problem is that you have not yet said what you really want. What you have done so far is that the user will not be prompted for a password when the computer is turned off and then restarted or only made "Restart". The other thing is, if you use the "Sleep" or "Hibernate" function or computer simply logs You off, because You don't did nothing for long time. It needs to be configured separately. Open the "Settings" and go to "Accounts" => "Sign-in-options" and there's sentence "If you've been away, when should Windos require you to sign in again?" Make your choice there. Of course, You must before doing this, turn off asking for current user login as it was sayd above, ie netplwiz ... etc.
My bad. I should of said when I am away for more than 45 mins, it locks up and when I come back it asks for a PW.
