PC help: Save logon time

If you alone have access to your computer, save time when starting Windows by opting to be automatically logged in to your account.

Click on the Start button, type ‘netplwiz’ (without the quotes) and press Enter. At the top of the dialogue box that appears, click to remove the tick from the box labelled ‘Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer’ and click on Apply. When prompted, enter your username and password, click on OK twice and you will never again have to enter your password.
