If the above process is not working on your PC to Start Windows 10 Without Password, you need to tweak registry editor. Registry Editor stores the password and username on a plain text.

Set Default Password
- Find DefaultPassword. Double click on it. Write the Password of the Microsoft account you use to login to the space below Value data and tap on Ok.
Sometime DefaultPassword is not found. In this case:
- Right-click on the right side of the registry editor on a vacant area.
- Select String Value.
- A new string is created in the right section of the running registry editor. Write this string name DefaultPassword.
- Put double click into effect on DefaultPassword string and write the Password for your Microsoft account.
Edit or create the string AutoAdminLogon
- Look for AutoAdminLogon in the right segment of the Registry Editor.
- Double click on AutoAdminLogon.
- Write the Value data 1 and press Ok.
If AutoAdminLogon is not found:
- If AutoAdminLogon is also absent from the right segment of the Registry editor, create a new one. Do a right click on the vacant place, move the mouse pointer to New followed by a click on String value.
- Write down its name AutoAdminLogon.
- Execute a double click on AutoAdminLogon, write 1 in Value data field replacing 0, and hit Ok.

says:How about a real simple way to get rid of the password on startup? Us old timers are not up to all the razzle-dazzle in what I have found in my wanting to get rid of this awful time consuming and annoying time it takes to just start the computer working on 10. Never had this problem with 7…wish I still had it.

says:Hey Debra, the process is written, you must have to make this new string write its name AutoAdminLogon?
Debra
says:Did you make a new string and name it DefaultPassword?
Brian Sprague
says:My apologizes. I missed DefaultPassword since it did not exist. I made a new string similar to AutoAdminLogon and inserted my password and was able to make this work. Thanks much!
Brian Sprague
says:Thanks for this article, but I was not successful. The first part was done previously before I saw your site but it did not help. In DefaultUserName I replaced the username that was in there with “username” [sic]. The DefaultPassword was not in regedit so I continued to create the string and AutoLoginOn and inserted “1”. But still would not work. To make doubly sure I went back and changed “username” back to my original username. Still no success.
