Bypassing/removing a password

charliedog000

Hi. New to te forum and I hope you can help

My son has a Samsung Series 5 Ultrabook. When he boots it up, it asks him for his password (which he knows). He would like to by-pass/remove this prompt so it takes him straight into his normal desktop

Can someone advise how to do this please?

At this point I will say the machine never leaves his bedroom. Would I rather he have a password on it? I guess I would; but he's 16 and this is how he chooses to operate

Many Thanks

Charlie

Press Windows key & R then type into the prompt :

control userpasswords2

Take a tick out of the box requiring users to enter a password at login and select the account you wish to auto login - it will ask for the password.

On reboot it will auto login to the account selected.

Other option (if you want to remove the password altogether) is to go to the control panel (user accounts) and remove the password from the account.
