Windows 10: Remove Password on Windows 10

Hi!

I created a password on my brother's computer as a prank and now, I wanted to remove it completely but there is no option. The only option that exists is "Change Your Password". I want to remove it completely so what should I do? I know that there is a way like going to "Run" and typing netplwiz but none of them are working. I mean, why isn't there a "Remove Password" option just like Windows 7 used to have? Please I need help with that. Thanks In Advance.

:)
