How to remove password at log-in
Hi,
I've upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, there are two user accounts. My account requires me to use my password to sign-in, but my wife can just hit the "sign-in" button to log-in.
How can I remove my password? I've set the "Require Sign-in" option to "Never" and I've also done the "netplwiz" solution and unchecked "Users must enter a username and password to use this computer".
When the PC boots up, it automatically logs me in, which I don't want, because then my wife has to switch the user. Also, if she then logs out and I log-in it still asks me for my password.
It's driving me mad! Why can't I just do what I did in Windows 7 and just log-in without a password?
