  2. Windows 10 automatic login issues.

    I am using Win 10. I was using auto login but now I get 2 options of login and message that says wrong password so I have to login manually. How can I get back to auto login and I have tried the normal way to auto login

  3. Can't get rid of Automatic Log In from 8.1 after upgrading to Windows 10

    I had an auto login in set up on my computer in 8.1. When I had my computer upgraded to Windows 10, the auto login carried over. It worked fine until I needed to change my password. Now it tries the old auto login first and the I have to put in the
    new password. How can I get rid of the old auto login?

    auto login

    Uncheck "Users must enter..." and hit OK. It will ask you to confirm your password and from then on you will have automatic sign in. I think that's what you are asking for.

    I got there by entering "control userpasswords2" from an elevated Command Prompt.

    Yep, you have to uncheck that, then enter your stuff and your good

  10. Well pass the dunce hat.

    I did not see the check box until now. Plus I kept leaving the password entry blank.
    Now after entering passwords it works as it should.

    I kept looking at the tutorial and knew I was missing something I could not see, right in front of me.

    Thank's everyone.

    Ya, I don`t like how it makes you put in a password during the install, but easily fixed *Wink

    Agreed. I'm the only person to use this computer, so I always leave the password blank when I create my user account.
