Don’t want to enter your Microsoft password every time you log into your PC or laptop? Our helpful guide will show you how to bypass the Windows 10 password login.
Part of the reason tablets became so popular is the fact they are always-on – no waiting for Windows to load, and no needing to enter your password every single time you wanted to use them.

You can increase the speed at which Windows loads firstly by removing unnecessary startup programs. A second step – and one to take only if you’re pretty sure your computer won’t fall into the wrong hands – is to remove the additional step of needing to enter a password for Windows.
Removing Windows’ password login is a simple case of unchecking a box in the User Account settings. Here’s how to access that option. Also see: How to change your user account password in Windows 10.
