1 How to remove Windows 10 password from Settings
2 How to remove Windows 10 password from Control Panel

When Windows 10 is installed, during the process it is requested to create the user with an associated password and this is due to security vulnerabilities that can arise in having a computer without password protection..

 

 

This is the basic security method and as such it is ideal to have a complex password so that it is not detected, but many users prefer to have direct access to the system which not only optimizes the login but is ideal in case of forgetting of the login password.

 

Remember that this method will only apply if we are in a secure environment and it is the process to remove the Windows 10 password that we will see on the lock screen. Below you will see two ways to carry out this process in detail each of them.
