Windows 10 netplwiz 'Users must enter a username and password Missing

I Had this problem with netplwiz 'Users must enter a username and password to use this computer' checkbox missing

But according to my research, this is an issue for some users only with Build 2004.....thought it was due to a corrupt user profile......so did the suggested registry mod & all is back to normal, meant to be `by design` by Microsoft to discourage passwords and use other means of logging in....need go to the following reg key and change the DWORD to 0 from 2.....would love any comments on this, but it worked for me

 

Other User. The username or password is incorrect.

If you would just like to bypass Windows 10 password login, you may follow the steps below:

1. Type netplwiz in the Start menu search bar, then click the top result to run the command

2. Remove the tick from the box next to 'Users must enter a username and password to use this computer' and hit Apply

3. Enter your username and password, then re-enter your password.

4. Click Ok

5. Click Ok again to save the changes.

Let us know how it goes.

 

wifi username & password in Windows 10

adding the network manually is the only thing that has worked for me. After selecting a WiFi network and entering the network security key, Windows 10 prompts for a username and password. What username and password is being requested? it's not the username
and password for the only user account on the machine, nor is it a username/password for the WiFi router.

The answer to the original question misses the mark.

Windows 10 is the only OS I've had issues with when connecting to this network. OSX, Android, iOS, and Windows 7 all work as expected. Only Windows 10 prompts for a username and password after entering the network key. Are there user permissions that
need to be set even for an Administrator user?
