Can anyone give me guidance as to how i can remove the need to enter a password whenever our computer is switched on please?
It is a samsung computer. I am completely computer illiterate. When i got the computer it was automatically set up to need a passport to be entered in order for it to "switch on" fully. i want to remove it as i keep forgetting the password!!!
Thanks in advance

Sounds more like a BIOS password than a Windows one?
After turning it on hit the F2 key (probably) to enter the BIOS settings and look for User password within the Security options.0
