how to remove password login

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

Here are the steps to remove the password login on Windows 10:

1. First, click on the Start Menu and then the Settings cog icon.
   
2. In the Settings window, navigate to Accounts -> Sign-in options.
   
3. Under the Password section, click on the Change button.
   
4. You will be asked to enter your current password. Enter your password and click Next.
   
5. In the next window, leave all the fields (New password, Reenter password, and Password hint) blank. Just click on the Next button.
   
6. Finally, click on the Finish button to remove the password.
   

This should effectively remove your password. However, if you are using a Microsoft account and not a local account, Windows might still prompt you to sign in with your Microsoft account password.

If you want to completely bypass this, you would need to switch to a local account:

1. Click on the Start Menu and then the Settings cog icon.
   
2. In the Settings window, navigate to Accounts -> Your Info.
   
3. There, you will see an option "Sign in with a local account instead". Click on it.
   
4. Follow the prompts to set up a local account. When it asks you for a password, leave it blank.
   

Please note that switching to a local account will disassociate your Microsoft account from your Windows account. You will lose some features tied to the Microsoft account, such as the ability to download apps from the Windows Store.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance. Thank you.

Best regards

• I do NOT like the new start menu
• I do NOT like having to use a Microsoft account
• I do NOT want to have to enter a password to log into my HOME machine
• I do NOT like how "All Programs" is now "All apps". Im not on a god damn phone or tablet.
• I do NOT like how the shut down button is at the top of the start menu
• I do NOT like Windows 8 feel

I want full Aero back.
