Register or log in to remove.

1) Click on Start, then Click on Control Panel

2) Click on the User Accounts and Family Safety link

NOTE: if you are in the Classic View of Control Panel, you won't see this link, continue on to step 3

3) Click on the User Accounts option

4) In the "Make changes to your user account" section, click the Remove your Password link for the user.

5) On the next screen, enter your current password

6) Click the Remove Password button to confirm that you would like to remove your account password.

7) Close the User Accounts window

8) Restart your computer and test the system.

Now that your Windows Vista user password has been removed, you will no longer need to log inot Windows Vista. Instead when your computer starts, it will now continue loading through to your desktop automatically.

Dear "anonymous" please try to be a bit more detailed to help people answer your question more accurately. :)

If you are looking to remove a password and you know what the password is, then follow the instructions above.

If you want to find out what a password is then remove it, go to http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/download.php?type=livecd, download the LiveCD iso for Vista, and burn to a blank CD. Then boot the computer in question from the disc. When the disc loads it will load into a linux environment which will automatically run a program which will crack the windows password and display it in a table in plain text.

They are cheaply made products with cheap call centres with cheap service..

There is NO "remove password link". So, now what?

in the field where it says password, remove what's there and just hit enter, same for retype password field. By removing what's there and just hitting enter removes passwords altogether. Tested this over a 1000 times.
