Windows Being Annoying!

Bezinator · 18 Apr 2007 at 22:25

Hi,

I dont have a password set on my account but if i Switch User or press Windows + L it keeps asking for a password, so i have to reboot my PC and loose any work if its not saved.

Does anyone have any ideas how to just let me switch user without asking for a pass i have never set?

Thanks,
Chris

It was on XP. Basically it was saying my login was passworded when no pass was set in "Users"

So i right clicked on the desktop and went to display. I then went through all the tabs (cant remember which one as im at work) and there was a box checked that said something like "Password protect pc when in standby" i unticked this and the password was gone.
