Remove Password at Startup

Submitted by pcsnpixels on December 30, 2005 - 8:50pm.
  • Windows Tips

Are you annoyed by a 'password' screen that starts up every time you start your computer? Did you know that this password affords you NO extra security what-so-ever?

Well, if you are itching to get rid of it, here's how:

1. Click on Start --> Find --> Files or Folders
2. Type: *.pwl in the named box
3. Click in the Look In box and choose My Computer
4. Make sure the Include subfolders box is checked and then click on Find Now
5. Delete any files that are found and close the Find window
6. Click on Start --> Settings --> Control Panel
7. Double-click on Network
8. In the Primary network logon box, make sure it says Windows Logon
9. Click OK and restart your computer
10. When Windows comes back, you will be presented with the logon screen once again, this time, however, DO NOT enter a password...just click OK (some users may get a second screen...just click OK again).

You will never again be bothered by the logon password screen.

If this helped, consider buying me a beer or an Americano!
