    Password requested by Windows constantly


    I have noticed this is an issue for others but no answers. I have spent a lot of money having computer wiped and reset up but the problem persists. What is causing the computer to keep requesting my password. This is not only outlook but other programs such as quicken. It is very annoying.


    please advise.

    :)

    Win 10 Constantly Requesting Password After Entering Sleep Mode


    Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has any idea on how to stop Win 10 requesting password after going into sleep mode. What I have tried netplwiz and unchecked box and also a Microsoft Rep suggested to access user accounts through cmd which I did and that helped a little to where computer needs to enter sleep mode to request password where as before when screen just shut off to save power and hitting power button before sleep activated password request happened. The device is a Surface 3 with Win 10 from 8.1 where 8.1 never had this issue. Also, I think is weird, when sign in comes up it says switch user in bottom left but computer only has one user that I can verify through control panel and cmd using net users. So issue is tablet goes into sleep mode will request password but instead of entering password you can hit power button and select restart then Win 10 signs right in, weird. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
