How To Remove P/word Screen

[stevie m]

After a recent update,(Win10), my computer now wakes from sleeping and always prompts for my password, which isn't a problem for me, but as this is a family computer so its a pain for everyone else. Can I stop this prompt screen from appearing please.

Presumably you haven't set a password so everyone just clicks the button and gets in anyway ?

Hi OG it seems to have picked up my Hotmail password which i'm not sure if I entered when I upgraded to Win10

I don't know about W10 but on other versions if you go into Control Panael > Power options there is a section "require a password on wakeup". There you set whethf or not you want to put in the password when you wake the machine from "sleep".

Looks similar in Win 10.
