    W7 signing in procedure


    Right now it is necessary to enter a password to get into the system and if I forget it there is no way to start the system.

    Is there a way to set this up in a different manner.

    Thanks

    That's easy - don't forget your password!

    Type Win+R, control userpasswords2. Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer".

    in the Run box that comes up after you hit Win+R

    Type:

    control userpasswords2 [press ENTER]

    or

    netplwiz [press ENTER]

    Same difference..

    Hello Enigma,

    In addition, Log On Automatically at Startup .

    Hope this helps,

    Thank you all for your answers, especially Shawn.

    I like your little blub on the bottom of the posts.
