Every time I turn on my computer, or awaken it from screensaver mode, my
computer prompts me to enter my password. Since I am the only user on my
computer and don't have or want a password, I would like to know how to
disable this automatic locking. The welcome screen is already disabled, but
every time the computer is turned off or on screen saver, the computer is
locked

Autologon

1) Click Start, Run and enter CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2
2) Select the user account you want automatically logged on (this avoids the Administrator account being selected by default)
3) Uncheck Users must enter username and password..........
4) Click Apply
5) In the next dialog, enter the password, if any, for the account you chose in Step 2
6) Ok your way out

Screensaver

Right click the Desktop, select Properties, Screen Saver, uncheck "On resume............."
