    I use windows 7
    I am the sole user and the administrator
    yet every time I turn on my computer/restart, I have to click the icon to sign in

    how do I make the computer skip this step

    I have tried to find the answer via google, and feel silly for asking, but it's so irritating

    thanks

    Start, Control Panel, User Accounts, in the Make Changes in Your Account , section,, click the Remove Password link, then in the text box in the next screen, enter your password and click, Remove Password, to confirm it is removed. Close User Accounts. Now you should be able to boot to the Win 7 desktop.

    that was the key issue
    I didnt have the option of removing a password since there was no password

    seems to be loading straight to the main screen no welcome/log in screen at all


    thanks

    dont sweat the details?
    bunch of crap,

    Life is full of tiny frustrations that add up
    this post really has saved me a lot of minor frustrations and thus has helped my days go better.


    thanks again, Nick
