Windows 10: Login after Log off

I've already used run > netplwiz to disable the login. It works as expected when I reboot. No password prompt.

But if I "log off", it takes me to the lock screen password prompt. So if i want to get in from there, I must enter a password.

But if I instead just reboot the computer from the lock screen option there, I automatically enter windows with no password.

I never saw this behavior before, so how do I stop it from prompting for a password after logging off?

New TechPowerUp Forums, Early Access

So far I like it with just a few issues, and they are minor.

• The name of the person who created the thread and the date is really lite and hard to read for me.
• When you are logged in the thread titles are in bold and look great, but when you are logged out they are normal, and very hard to read. We have a lot of users that come, and do not login. So, I suggest changing it to where everything is bold if you are not logged in.
