Hello all. I have a question for you. My brother had put a password on his
computer at work for the screensaver and now when he tries to log into
windows it also has the password option which he doesn't want. When he goes
into control panel and then user option there is no option to remove the
password, just change it. How do I remove it. The password is known, just
can't delete it off of the account. ANy ideas? I have never ran into this
problem before. Any inof would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you

This is how I turn off the password option; right click on the desktop and
select Properties, click on Screen Saver tab. There is a check box [ ] next
to 'On resume, password protect'. Click on it to un-check the box. Click ok
to get out and that's it. Hope it works for you.
 
Yeah he has done that, but it still is prompting for the password when the
computer is turned on(to log into windows) and there is not an option under
user accounts to remove password. Thanks for replying tho!!! :-D
