This has been bugging me for some time now so I finally decided to post. When I start my computer up it always stops at the login screen asking for a password and I do not have a password so all I do is click enter on my keyboard and it finishes booting me into Windows 7 so how can I get rid of this and have it boot right into Windows 7??
📎 AI Summary:
CraigR was experiencing an issue where his Windows 7 computer prompted for a password at startup despite not having one. Josephur suggested using the "control userpasswords2" command to disable the password prompt, but CraigR's option was not available. Ultimately, CraigR resolved the issue with help from another forum, expressing thanks but indicating that the suggested fix didn't work for him.
