Control Panel, User Accounts. Select your account, click Change Password. Enter your current password, if necessary and leave the boxes for the new password blank.

I want to disable my passoword log in. Everytime I log in it asks me to enter
a password. I want to be able to log in by clicking on my account without
entering a password, just like the guest account and my husbands account. I
had it like this before but I don't know what I did. Please Help.

Thanks In Advance,
Carolyn
