Windows 10: I do not want to have to enter a Windows 10 username and password. Google Chrome won't...

I am not a techie person and have been frustrated with having to learn a whole new Windows 10 after using it since 1996 with ease. I seem to have at least three problems. The first is that I don't want to have to sign into Windows every time I turn on my computer. I have tried: Windows +R and entered netplwiz. The box next to "Users must enter user name and password to use this computer is NOT CHECKED. The box is blank. Next I tried: Windows +R and entered HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\PasswordLess\Device An error message comes up and says this cannot be

Google Chrome ask for Windows 10 password to view Chrome passwords.

Hello Dennis18_Se,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

To have a better clarity on the issue and guide you accordingly, respond to the questions listed below:

1. Are you using a Microsoft account or a Local account in sign in to that account?
   
2. May I know if your computer is connected to a Domain (organization) network?
   
3. Are you able to access websites using other web browsers?
   

Google Chrome will save login usernames and passwords and will automatically complete the sign-in fields for you the next time you visit the websites. It’s a good security measure added by Chrome.

If you do not want Chrome to ask for your Windows login password when you access, you can either remove the Windows user login password from your account or disable the password manager re-authentication feature in Chrome. To disable the password
manager re-authentication follow the below method:

• Open Google Chrome browser and type chrome://flags in the address bar and press Enter.
  
• You get a list of features available, scroll down to see flag labeled
  Disable Password Manager Re-authentication.
  
• Click on the Enable link below its feature description to enable the feature.
  
• Click on the button labeled Relaunch Now to restart chrome with new settings.
  
  

Hope it helps.
