How to Launch Windows 11 without Password
The password's primary aim is to keep prying eyes away from your computer. If you use a local account, you can bypass the login screen and go straight to your Windows desktop every time you p...
Yarisyoyo That potentiality is NOTHING compared to having a home-bound geriatric person scream at you constantly because she cannot remember her 4 number pin. I'll take my chances with the passwordless login, if I can ever make it work on Windows 11, which is looking pretty doubtful right now. I hate Microsoft right now for making this so difficult. Can't they understand that there are legitimate use cases for making this easier?
As a 53-year-old, who manages webhosting servers and designs websites, I also scream at that password requirement in Windows. I have never lost access to a personal asset through theft or hacking. I have lost access to multiple personal assets over passwords - and sometimes I think it has as much to do with the vendor as me. I manage over 900 passwords for various things, so it's not like I'm inept. I know from experience, these passwords are far more likely to steal from me than anyone who has access to my Windows laptop. After maybe 24 hours of work and research, I've managed to remove the password requirement from my new laptop except for when it wakes up from sleep mode. I'm just done. Windows already stole my last laptop by being bugging out on Windows updates and making a perfectly good laptop unusable. Let Microsoft steal a second laptop from me, and I'll just have to switch away from Microsoft for the first time in my life. This situation is infuriating and is the last straw in my Microsoft fandom.
