Windows 10: How to Bypass Login Password

I want to sign into Windows without a password, So I un-ticked "Users must enter a user name and password..." in User Accounts (See below). Now when I boot up, the Password screen is bypassed, and all is good. But when I simply log out of my account, I have to enter a password to get back in. Is it possible to get back into my account without a password?

Thanks for your reply, but that is what I did as explained above. The Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer box is not ticked. It was after I un-ticked it that I did not have to use a password when I booted up, but still need to enter it after I sign out of my account and then try to sign back in.

 

Entering a password is part of logging in. You have it set to auto log in. Why log out? What if you restart after logging out - do you still have to sign in?

 

I log out because there is another User Account that use the PC interchangeably with me. (The other account does not require a password to log in, but it migh tbe a local account without a password assigned; don't know for sure). When I log out and then restart the PC, it goes directly to my User Account without any password required.

 

Two suggestions - (and yes, I understand you want to not enter password at login) :
One, in screen saver settings, uncheck the box for "On resume, display logon screen". See highlighted area

OR: Change Screen Saver Password Grace Period in Windows

 

Is that really necessary with this available? -




Or more of a privacy/trust issue?

 

There is one other location relating to passwords that could be causing your issue ...

Settings - Accounts - Sign in Options - Require Sign in

 

Actually, this is how I switch back to my account. Turns out that I actually do not log out (My bad). When I'm in another account and I open this drop down, I see my account with a comment saying I'm signed in. Then when I click it to get into my account, I get the Password screen. Sorry for the confusion on this.

 

Thanks for your reply Nigel. I already have option set to Never.

 

Of course, my apologies also, as this traditionally has always required password to come back from. So I was giving a useless alternative.

 

as for Grace Period - 2 questions:
One of the directions is:
click/tap on New, click/tap on DWORD (32-bit) Value, type ScreenSaverGracePeriod for the name, and press Enter.
I have a 64-bit machine. Does the DWORD (32-bit) Value still apply?

Second. Guess I would enter max seconds (2147483). Is that correct? I am not savvy enough to understand this level of detail, so need to be extremely careful that I don't screw things up when I dinker with the Registry.

 

SO does that mean there is no way to bypass the password when switching from one account to the other?
