    How to remove log in password


    We're two people using my computer, me and my roommate, and my roommate wants to remove the password off her account when she logs in, because typing the password in every single time she uses the PC is bothersome. We tried to remove the password both from her account Microsoft user, and from mine Administrator account, for some reason, the only available options are to change her current password.How can a password be removed for a user? When I removed my password for my own account, it was far easier.

    :)
