    Login screen not wanted


    Hi.
    All of a sudden, when I wake my PC up from its sleep, I have to click a login picture.

    I don't have a password set-up and never have as I'm the only user, so I'm not sure why this as started to occur.

    Is there a way of getting rid of this irk-some thing?

    Thanks.
    Mike.

    This will show you how to select or change a user account to have Windows 7 automatically log on to at startup.
