Is there some way to configure Windows 7 to boot up without asking for a password (on password check phase) even if I have a password set on my account?
What I wan't to do with it, is boot up without interruptions, but when I lock my Windows (with Win+L) I want to block it until I enter my account password.
I was wondering if maybe exists some registry set configuration of something like this.
1IMHO "A locked Windows? Oh power off, power on and now I have access" That's why you couldn't have a password only when you lock your Windows. ( Posted as comment, since I don't know, there's maybe a way to do it) – Nettogrof – 2012-03-28T21:17:17.790
While I think there may be some way to do this (I don't know of one, though) I agree with @Nettogrof that it's totally insecure and pointless. – Shinrai – 2012-03-28T21:23:14.403
3Actually, the true history is that I erased my account password because I put a password on BIOS to start booting Windows, so, if I left a password active on Windows, I would need to insert two passwords to boot Windows... Without a password, windows lock do not require a password to enter, so my machine would be unprotected. With this situation, I insert password protection to boot jusr 1 second after turning on my machine and still have lock screen password protection, I win on boot time, if I made myself understandable.... – Diogo – 2012-03-28T22:03:37.513
@shinrai: certainly insecure, but not at all pointless. Security is frequently not much of a concern: not everybody puts stuff on their computer that they feel they need to hide. – kreemoweet – 2012-03-28T23:37:23.357
1@DiogoRocha - Now that setup makes sense :) – Shinrai – 2012-03-29T00:05:50.097
