Q: How do I remove the Password on my new Windows 7 computer?


Microsoft will give you two/three ways to make changes to your OS. (Operating System)

A: Go to Start.

Click the Control Panel. You should see this screen. "Adjust Your Computer's Setting"

View by: Category
             Large Icons: If you choose Large Icons. Look for "User Accounts"
             Small Icons

On the Category page.
Look under "User Account and Family Safety"

Click "Add or Remove User Account"

Now you will be asked this question.

"Choose the account you would like to change?"

"Make change to "name" account. (The Account that you are changing the password)

 Change your password.

In the first text box, enter your current password.

In the next two text boxes, leave blank. Hint Box: Leave blank 

Or if you are changing your passing, enter the password you would like to start using.

Hint Box: Use a good hint.

Click on the Change password button to confirm your changes.
