Disable Windows XP Login Prompt for Password

November 10, 2008

This trick will show you how to bypass the login prompt in Windows XP with your "local account". Yes, it's only applied for local user accounts.

Most home users would love this trick. It allows you to bypass the login prompt on Windows startup and go straight to your desktop without a login.

This Windows XP feature is pretty cool in case the machine is mostly used by a single user. Is's kindda annoying when you're the only one using the pc and you have to login everytime, isn't it?

Use this trick at your own risks

Here's how:

1. From Desktop, Click on "Start" >> "Run".
2. Then type in "control userpasswords2" and press Enter.
3. Uncheck the box for "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer."
4. Click "Apply" and "Ok".

Although it is a nice trick, I cannot recommend this to anyone. Not asking for a password is a big security risk, so when your computer is connected to the internet, you basically grant everyone access to your computer, as they only need to know the username and not the password.

So yes: use at your own risk!
