Hi

You can disable your administrative password, so that you do not need to enter it again and again.

Click on START->CONTROL PANEL-> USER Accounts.

there you can find the option to disable password of an existing account.

You must have one user with administrative rights. If you dont want to use it then create a User Account and login with that. There is also the Windows 7 Built in Administrator see here:

If your User Account has administrative rights then you cannot delete it unless you have at least one other account with administrative rights!

You do seem to be asking the same question over and over again even when the answer has been provided. Go back over this thread and you will see that it is not necessary to have any passwords but you should be aware that this leaves your comuter open to others!

Hi soulfood

If you remove the password then any one who has the physical access( one who can start your computer from his/her finger or any other part of the body) to your computer( like ur parents, brother, sisters, friends) can do whatever they want. But any how you will be safe from other things.

Your safety over the internet is the same whether you have a password for your user account or not.

Incidently soulfood I have been reading your old posts especially around October last year and your system specs then were very much higher than what is shown now. Just a thought but are your specs up to date?
