Disabling Windows Vista and 7 Login at Startup

When you start your Windows
Vista or Windows 7 computer,
by default the system makes
you enter your password to
log in. Here’s a way to get
around it. When you first install Vista or
7 and start using it, you are
required to enter in a
password for your account.
But after that, you’re not really
given a choice to remove the password if you don’t want it.
You’re just sort of stuck typing
it in every time and that can
get old rather quickly! If you’re not the only one who
uses your computer, consider
leaving it this way. It is a good
security feature and it helps to
keep all of the different
accounts, files and preferences separate from each other. But
if you’re the only one who
ever uses your computer, you
should be able to get rid of the
password prompt if you want. If you’d like to bypass the
Windows Vista and 7 log on
process and remove your
password, just follow these
steps: 1. Go to Start, Control Panel. 2. Click on the User Accounts and
Family Safety link. 3. Next, click on the User
Accounts link. 4. Under the “Make changes to
your user account” section,
click on the Remove Your
Password link for your
account. 5. On the next screen that comes
up, enter in your current
password. 6. Click on the Remove Password
button to confirm everything. 7. Close out of all the open
windows and restart your
computer. That will allow you
to test the system to make
sure your password really was
removed. From now on, when you start
up your Vista computer, you
will be taken to your desktop
automatically and you will no
longer have to worry about a
password.
