How to Launch Windows 11 without Password
ammarjaved When I open the netplwiz from Run, I just get this window:
I don't get any option to check or uncheck any box.
How can I prevent the pc from automatically signing in to the non-admin user, when that's the most recently used user?

mapkona I've tryed all the ways, I don't have the password option in the CMD commend and windows will not let me leave the password blank. Any other suggestions?

Is it a problem to press 3 buttons at the same time?

You need to edit the registry to make that box appear, see here:

jnmccrt I had the same problem. I stumbled on to this solution. It doesn't seem like it should work, but it worked for me.
- I shut down all my programs to prepare to reboot.
- I typed Windows key + i to bring up the Settings menu.
- I typed Windows key + r to bring up the Run window search box.
- I entered netplwiz in the Run window search box field (actually, it was pre-filled in from my previous attempt.)
- I clicked OK and the User Accounts window came up, but this time the Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer box was available for me to check/uncheck.
- On my system, the box was unchecked, so I checked it (as the instructions advise, even though this seems counterintuitive), clicked OK, etc.
- I rebooted and I did have to use my password to log in. So I repeated the process and unchecked the box this time, rebooted, and voila - I can now start my computer without any password or PIN.
I hope this works for you.
