How to setup autologin in Windows

May 6, 2014   /   by Marco  / Categories :  Technology

There are a few ways to setup autologin in Windows 7. The easiest is to just have one single user account (administrator) and set it to have a blank password. Obviously there are a few security issues with this setup or any setup with autologin but it’s the quick and easy solution.

The other solution is to create multiple accounts and choose one (other than administrator) to automatically login. To do this simply click on start, then type netplwiz and select this from the list:

autologin - netplwiz

Create the user account by clicking add and then make sure you deselect Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer.

autologin - user accounts

Click on OK and it will ask to select which user account to autologin with and enter the username and password. That’s it, the next time you login, the system will automatically login with the account you selected.

This is handy to setup if you want to use the PC as a Kiosk or can’t be bothered entering login and passwords.
