Normally, it is important to use a password when logging into a device in order to keep your data secure. A password also keeps the device safe, more so if there is more than one person using it. However, we know how annoying it gets if you have to type in the password every time you log in, so if you want to skip the process and login directly, there are a few methods to do so.
How to Remove the Login Password From Windows 10
There are a few methods you can use to remove the login password in Windows 10. Here you can find them.
Remove the password from Settings
• This option is for those who use a local account.
• Go to your computer’s ‘Settings’ and open the ‘Accounts’ option
• Find the ‘Sign-in options’ label and head to ‘Password,’ then click on ‘Change’
• Verify the current password and click on the ‘Next’ option
• Another page will appear that suggests you to ‘Change your password’
• There are three options available: ‘New password,’ ‘Reenter password,’ and ‘Password hint.’ Leave the fields blank and click on ‘Next,’ then on ‘Finish’
• The password is now removed
SysInternals Autologon Tool Option
Another method you can use to remove the password is a tool called Autologon, created by Microsoft. The app is useful when users want to automatically log into the computer, as it encrypts the password and stores it in the registry. Here is how to use this tool.
• First, download Autologon from here
• As an administrator, run the ‘Autologon.exe’ file
• Click on the ‘I accept’ option on the license agreement, and fill in the Username, Domain, and Password fields
• Click on ‘Enable’
• You will receive a notification saying that Autologon is enabled and the password is encrypted
The next method will help you bypass the password logon.
• Launch the ‘Run’ option by pressing the ‘Win + R’ keys on the keyboard
• Type ‘netplwiz’ in the field and click on ‘OK’
• A window named ‘User accounts’ will appear, with the option saying ‘User must enter a user name and password to use this computer’
• Untick the box next to it and click on ‘OK’ and ‘Apply’
• Give the ‘Automatically sign in’ information and click on the ‘OK’ option
• Your PC’s system now has the automatic login
The following method can be used for the Microsoft account, which makes your account switch into a local one.
• Go to ‘Settings’ and ‘Account’
• Launch the ‘Your info’ option and click on ‘Sign in with a local account instead’
• Verify your current password and Tap on ‘Next’
• Leave the password fields blank and click on the ‘Next’ button, then on ‘Finish’
