    unable to deactivate Windows log-on password

    Hi HearaldPenkert,

    I suggest trying with this steps:

    • Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.

      (If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then click Search.)
    • Enter sign, and then tap or click Change sign-in options.
    • Choose the sign-in option you'd like to use, and then follow the instructions.

    If you're using a local account with a password, you can delete the password to sign in without one. Try this steps:

    • Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.

      (If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then click Search.)
    • Enter sign, and then tap or click Sign-in options.
    • Under Password, tap or click Change.
    • Verify the current password for your local account.
    • Leave the New password, Reenter password, and Password hint fields blank, tap or click Next, and then tap or click Finish.
    I hope it will solve your issue.

    Bye

    • Hold down the Shift key at the start of the boot process to enable the GNU GRUB boot menu (if it does not show)
    • Press ESC at the GNU GRUB prompt.

  4. Deactivating the use of a password to open my computer

    deactivate having to enter a password on my computer every time I open it

    Hi,

    Supposedly, users are required a password specifically when signed in with a Microsoft account. You have the option to either switch to a local account instead or to disable the password prompt through
    netplwiz.

    If you don't mind switching to a local account, here's what you need to do:

    • Go to Settings, and then Accounts.
    • Under Your info, click on Sign in with a local account instead, and then go through the prompt.

    Now, if you would still like to use your MSN account to sign in to Windows, follow the steps below on how to turn off the password prompt:

    • Right-click on the Start button, and then select Run.
    • Type netplwiz, and then hit Enter.
    • In the Users tab, uncheck the box for Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer, click
      Apply, and then OK.

    We hope this helps. Let us know if there's anything else that we can help you with.
