Window 10 Auto-Logon (Hotmail/MS Account)

Hello everyone!

So, i've updated my PC to Windows 10 and i have a little problem.

Anyone knows how to auto-logon without asking for password using Hotmail/MS Account? I i've already tried the trick using "netplwiz" from Windows 8 wich always worked totally, and in Win10 it just does not work, it keeps asking me for password...

Anyone knows how to bypass this without having to create a local account?

Cheers.

 

Hotmail accounts posted online

Thousands of Hotmail passwords have been hacked and posted online, according to reports.

See this arcticle for more details:

I suggest that you change your password if you use any "Live" accounts.

 

Window 10 Auto-Logon (Hotmail/MS Account)

1. run netplwiz
2. select the user in the box you want to autologin to
3. uncheck the box "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer"
4. click Apply
5. a box will pop up asking the user account and password you want to autologin to. Fill it out. If there is no password, leave the password field blank.
6. click OK
7. click OK

restart to test


Win10 copies the Live/Outlook/Hotmail account locally.
