Can I set my Windows to boot without stop on password verification even when having a password set? [duplicate]
Is there some way to configure Windows 7 to boot up without asking for a password (on password check phase) even if I have a password set on my account?
What I wan't to do with it, is boot up without interruptions, but when I lock my Windows (with Win+L) I want to block it until I enter my account password.
I was wondering if maybe exists some registry set configuration of something like this.
Solution 1:
Open a run box Win+R and type in
control userpasswords2
Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer", highlight the user account you wish to log on automatically before going to the next step.
Then click the Advanced Tab and be sure "Require users to pres ctrl+alt+del" box is Unchecked then hit apply.
Enter the user account name and password for the account you wish to log on automatically and hit the Ok button. Close user accounts window. (If you highlighted the correct user count as suggested earlier it will automatically be filled in)
It will now log on using the account and password you set, using Win+L will still require a password to log back on.
Solution 2:
If you want to keep your password, but still automatically login on boot, you can do it by setting a registry key:
HKLM -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows NT -> CurrentVersion -> Winlogon
You need to set the DefaultUserName
, DefaultPassword
, and DefaultDomain
string values to match your login information, and set the AutoAdminLogon
string value to "1
". If any of these values do not exist, you will need to create them.
