Windows 10: What is my logon name when a workstation logs onto my Win10 computer?

I have a Windows 10 Professional that is part of WORKGROUP. When I log onto the computer, my full name comes comes and I enter my password (or use the four digit logon). I am the only user as well as administrator.

Here is where the question arises: if I want to sign onto my computer from another computer on the WORKGROUP, I need to use my first name and the password for my Microsoft logon - and I only discovered this by trying many combinations.

So, where might I find these credentials? And is there a place where I can read about this part of the security?

Many thanks...

Automatic logon does not work on my computer

a) I am unable to remember one of the logons which I setup as an emergency logon (in case I forget the other logon).

-> When logged on under an admin account, you can change the password for any other account. Press the Windows key and type users, then follow the prompts.

b) I am unable to long [log on?] without keying in a password.

You must follow this procedure while the user accounts panel (the one you posted) is active:

• Tick the box that requires users to enter a password.
• Click the account name under which you wish to log on automatically.
• Untick the box from Step 1.
• Click OK.
• Enter the password for the chosen account.

 

Windows 10 workstation Security log filling with Event ID 4703

My Windows 10 workstation's Security Event Log is filled with informational Event ID 4703 (like 20/second).

It's an Audit Success on Authorization Policy Change category.

Pretty much all are about the javaw.exe process & SeSecurityPrivilege. But also a few of them list svchost.exe as the process & a whole list of privileges.

I can't find anything on the Net about event 4703.

Sometimes it lists the privilege as Disabled (as below), and some are Enabled. Back & forth, multiple events per second.

Does anyone have any idea what/why this is, or anyone else experiencing it?

Here are the details of the event (edited for privacy)...
