Or you just dont use a password lol?

[knowbyte]

@SmashBulten236 imo, risky to leave the admin account, or to a lesser extent non admin account without a password in any OS

I have this feature, another way of getting to that dialogue box is by typing into the run box "control userpasswords2".

This feature is for people who like windows to start without having to type in a password every time you turn the computer on, but also allows the user to lock their computer to keep it secure.

Hey I have a question, its a lil off topic but I thought hell why not.

I can not get windows to check for updates. Just got a message about it today. I get an error code of 8024402f when i try with the message "Windows couldn't not search for new updates" The auto fix has done nothing to help put it does say it fixes "Repair windows update component". I have gone in and restarted the update service manually. with no luck there. Im about ready to restore to an earlier time but wanted help 1st
