How to Log In To Windows Without Entering a PasswordWhile we think everyone should us a password (or a PIN in Windows 8x and Windows 10), we can understand why some people don’t want to bother with it, especially those who live alone or only have one user account on their computer and trust those who has access to it. To setup Windows so you don’t have to enter a password to log in, follow there easy step-by-step instructions: 1. Press the Windows key + R2. In the Run dialog type netplwiz and press Enter.3. The User Accounts dialogue box will be displayed.4. Uncheck “Users must a enter username and password to use this computer” press OK. You will be asked to type your password to verify. Type your password, confirm it, then press Apply/OK. That’s all you need to do. Now reboot your computer — you won’t have to enter a password ever again unless you change this setting. The above works on Windows 7, Windows 8x and Windows 10. Sonovabich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

When you run the netplwiz now, is the checkbox checked or empty? If its clear, check it so a password will be requested on start up. Change your password, but to the same password, shut down (not restart), then after a minute or so, fire it up again. Run netplwiz again, uncheck the box for “Users must enter a user name and passwordto use this computer” and hit apply, then shut down your PC (not restart). Fire it up again after a minute or so of it being off and see if thats worked. Sonovabich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

So log out of what ever account your on reboot and see what happens. Fail np create a new user account give it adm privileges and use what ever you want to remove the login password on that account. Again log out of what ever account your on reboot select your login account and chose the new one. Its not a fix but as far and work arounds go its not to bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

UNINSTALL. After this,inquire in a copy of Win7 from one of the clan mates. I'm sure somebody has a key and disc. God Bless. it would take a couple of hours to do an uninstall. and you have to reinstall the programs. To be honest, uninstall is the last option if things could not be fixed.
