Where are the settings for auto login ?

I found the one for wake up from sleep and set it to no password required.

Thank's Doug, I gave it a try but don't get this box:

From the start bar enter "netplwiz" and follow the prompts ... easy peasy

Maybe easy for you. Of course not easy for me, I get this and nothing else:

Uncheck "Users must enter..." and hit OK. It will ask you to confirm your password and from then on you will have automatic sign in. I think that's what you are asking for.

I got there by entering "control userpasswords2" from an elevated Command Prompt.

Yep, you have to uncheck that, then enter your stuff and your good

Well pass the dunce hat.

I did not see the check box until now. Plus I kept leaving the password entry blank.
Now after entering passwords it works as it should.

I kept looking at the tutorial and knew I was missing something I could not see, right in front of me.

Thank's everyone.

Ya, I don`t like how it makes you put in a password during the install, but easily fixed

This is one of the first things that I do on a new install. Im the only one that uses this puter so there's no real need for a password..
