    ]Hey Everybody, I tried to put a password on my computer so that if someone besides me turned it on, they would need a password to actually access my computer, but then I discovered that the password didn't work and that if you just press cancel, it'll let you sign onto the computer. I tried to turn this feature off but it still asks for my password everytime I turn my computer on. How do I turn this off? Thanks

    Delete all the PWL files in the Windows Folder. Reboot. When the logon window comes up, enter a name, do not enter a password, and press Enter or click Ok. Do not press ESC or cancel.
    It will never appear again, unless you Log Off.
