How To Disable Password For Login

Mar 9, 2016

I'm having troubles disabling the password that is required at startup. With my previous laptop(also Windows 10) the 'netplwiz' trick worked, but now it does not (screenshot 1). Another strange thing is that I always have to choose between two user accounts while I only have 1 user account (screenshot 2). I suspect that one account is a Microsoft account en the other one a local account.

Accounts :: How To Remove Startup Password

Nov 28, 2015

I created a password that I must enter each time I start the computer.

Since this is a Home Computer and only I use it, it's a waste of time.

How can I remove the requirement for a password every time I turn on the computer ?

I tried the "netplwiz" route and unchecked the box, did not work.

Antivirus :: Installed Bitlocker Does Not Ask For Password On Computer Startup

Nov 16, 2015

My query is regarding a brand new i7 sixth generation computer with Windows 10 Professional, including all the Windows upgrades, and a new Samsung SSD hard-drive.

The reason I bought Windows 10 Professional was for the full hard-drive encryption provided by Bitlocker in case my computer gets lost or stolen, as has happened to me previously. However, I have an ongoing problem with it and can't find a solution anywhere. I have tried to telephone Microsoft's telephone support several times but it has been beyond a joke with their outsource staff in far-flung countries with poor English claiming Windows 10 Professional does not have the option of Bitlocker or any form of encryption to all kinds of other absurdities.

Whenever I start my computer it does not ask me to enter a Bitlocker username or password (I am asked for the Windows password, but, as everyone knows, those are not totally secure and do no protect hard-drive data access). Also, in the Bitlocker section in Control Panel, I am not giving the option to edit a Bitlocker password, even though that option exists in all the other screenshots I have seen on the web.

How can I set my computer up to present me with a Bitlocker password on boot-up?

My system does say my hard-drive is encrypted, but how can I certain of that if there is not even password protection?

Here is what I see in my Windows Control Panel > Bitlocker section:

I note the warning message about rights being restricted to the system adminstrator, but I am the system adminstrator and have double-checked that.

Forgot Password And Stuck In Safe Mode Startup

Dec 10, 2015

After an update to Windows 10 I started getting "invalid register key" errors with every open.  I restored a previous registry value prior to the last update and still go the error.  Instructed to boot up in safe mode but as I logon using my microsoft account, safe mode does not open wifi connection and the password cannot be verified.  At least I think that is what is happening as I reset my microsoft account password using another computer and it is still refusing the password on the windows 10 machine.Is there anyway around the password request and get the computer to boot up in regular mode?

Drivers/Hardware :: Can't Disable Driver Signature Enforcement On Advanced Startup

Feb 1, 2016

So this is my 14th or 15th time attempting to disable the driver signature enforcement so I can use motioninjoy to install my PS3 Controller driver to use for Rocket League. However, every time I run advanced startup, the process goes rather slowly before loading up my options. No worries at that point, but when I finally end up at the screen that has the options f1-f9, f7 being the disable driver enforcement, my computer immediately shuts off immediately after loading all of the options. Why it just shuts off... sometimes it shuts off just before it loads all of the options, but I have never been able to disable the driver signature enforcement thus far.

Can't Disable Ctrl Alt Disable On Login Screen

Sep 28, 2015

I activated the ctrl alt disable login screen for Windows 10 by using this registry key from this forum.(Lock Screen - Enable or Disable in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums).

I downloaded and installed the key to disable only to find it didn't work so I tried to manually do it by changing the number from 0 to 1 only to find its already at 1.
I also tried going the user passwords2 to find the box to disable ctrl alt disable login is already ticked, but is greyed out meaning I can't untick the box.

How To Disable FN Key

Mar 6, 2016

I just replace my old keyboard. The problem with the new keyboard is I need to press the FN button + the function key (like volume up and down) before the function key will work. On my old keyboard the functions could be performed by only pressing the function key. There was no need to also press FN.

Is there a way to disable the FN key so I can go back to one button function key operations?

Disable DPI Scaling For All Programs

Aug 1, 2015

I just upgraded to Windows 10 from 8.1 and I am disappointed to see that some of my programs are now blurry. I had encountered this problem before when I installed Windows 8.1, but somehow I was able to fix it.

I can remove the blurriness from individual programs by manually disabling dpi scaling on each program, but I would like to do this system wide.

When I try to edit the display settings through the control panel, the changes I make result in everything on the screen being too small for me to read. I can't seem to get everything right how it was when I was running Windows 8.1.
