    Boot windows 10 directly to desktop

    So I've managed to get rid of the password requirement for windows 10, but it still boots to the lock screen and requires me to click the mouse to complete the boot up to my desktop.
    Has anyone figured out how to bypass the log in screen altogether and have the PC boot directly to desktop, no passwords or mouse clicks etc.???

    OK fixed it.
    I removed the password.
    Then I needed to restart, not just log off and log back in again.

    admin cmd prompt

    type: control userpasswords2
    untick the 'must enter password' box
    enter the details and password for the account you want to always boot into.

    recommend a non admin account.

    I have a similar problem in that I was silly to mention I have a microsoft account (it's on another computer as an insider)...so up comes my email address and have to enter a password, well I just won't to boot onto desktop and remove all this but can't find a way of doing it.

    True it's stuck on my computer now, but playing around and guessing I created another simple separate account with no password and win 10 asked me if I wanted to use this new account and log out of the MS one...of course I clicked "yes" and signed out and now the computer boots directly to the new account and straight to desktop.
