    Delete Password Requirement


    I am setting up an HP laptop with windows 10 for my 83 year old aunt. I don't want her to have to enter a password to get into the computer. Someone was helping me set it up and created an outlook email and password. I want to get rid of that requirement.

    When I go to netplwiz there is no box where I can unclick that users must enter a user name and password. I tried this on my own computer and that box came up just fine, but not on this new laptop.

    Can you tell me another way I can delete that requirement?

    :)

    • Open the Advanced power settings for your current chosen
      power plan
      .
    • Click on the Change settings that are currently unavailable link.
    • Set the Require a password on wakeup settings to Yes
      or No, and click on OK.

  4. Delete Password Requirement

    Delete file in password-protected archive without entering password?

    I open the archive and can see the list of files but as soon as I double click a file it asks for the password. But deleting the file from the same interface requires no password.
