Hi,

To remove your login screen on Windows 10, kindly follow these steps:

• On the search box, type netplwiz and press Enter.
• A new window labeled as User Accounts will appear, listing all user accounts. Click on your user account and uncheck Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer.
• Enter your account password and click OK.
• Reboot your PC and check if your new settings has been saved.

Let us know how it works.

Regards.

Thank you Brink for your speedy response. As for your first suggestion you suggest I use the option one step 4 to; sign in user account automatically? to not sign in, automatically? In your second suggestion her LT is already set to "never".

I think I have solved the issue. Here is what I did (for others). Win key+R> type netplwiz>if your users must enter name and password box is un-checked (even though the password screen is showing upon start-up) then check it. Follow up by entering the password (required) to apply settings. select Apply, and OK. close window. shut down, then re start> inter password>go to Win key+R >enter netplwiz hit run or OK> un-check the box previously checked. provide password select apply and OK. This did it for me. There may be better/faster way, but this worked in my case.
