    Startup Password On Booting........


    Hello Y'all--


    Okay. I just updated my desktop with all the new updates/upgrades and am ready to go. While I was at it, I also changed the name of my computer. When I went to reboot the system, I was asked for my login password. {I had this feature bypassed so that I wouldn't have to do it every time I booted up prior to this.}


    I used the <control userpasswords2> command and checked the box concerning not having to use a password to start up or something like that. The thing I noticed is, that there were NO other commands and/or prompts. I remembered in the past that I usually had to enter my password - most times twice - but this was not the case this time.


    I rebooted twice to run an experiment and both times I was asked to log in with my password. What am I not doing? Changing the name of my computer wouldn't cause this would it?


    Can someone help me with this? Thank you......!!

    :)

  2. Windows Startup password

    Is it possible to remove a startup password without being able to log into the system? A friend's laptop just prompt her today for a password that she never enabled. Now, she does have a standard user account password, but that doesn't work for the startup password. She had the computer for about a year now and it has never asked for a startup password until today.

    I tried to use Hiren Boot CD to run a diagnostic on the laptop, but it has a bsod. Windows 10 normal boot crashes as well

    Startup Password On Booting........

    laptop doesnt boot automatically

    This is what happened.

    1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
    2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
    3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
    4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
    5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
    6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

    I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

    Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
