Windows 10: How to disable the password on the lock screen using an online account

Hello,

I decided that it is time to move from an offline account to an online one. However, every time when I open my laptop or have the lock screen on, Windows wants me to retype my password for my Outlook account in order to be able to log in inside my computer. Is there a way I can remove this feature and make it like my offline account where, when you click twice on the lock screen it automatically goes to your main desktop. If someone can help me, I would be extremely grateful. Thank you in advance.

PS: I have found a thread where it is shown that you can disable the lock screen in general but I would like to keep it on. I just don't want to retype my password every time my screen locks.

Best regards,
Frank

How to remove the password on the lock screen.

You should open Settings and in Accounts ->Sign in options, click to change password and enter old password and then for new password and retry new password leave them empty.

Note: you could do this on local account only and if you are using Microsoft Account, you should switch to Local Account first.
