• Question

  This way my PC does not remove the password. It keeps asking for it, what can I do?

  

  Community Answer

  This depends on how you have set up your Windows 10 account because for the online way, there is no way to remove your password on Windows 10 because it is connected to your online Microsoft account. If you created your account without using your Microsoft account, go to the sign-in options, enter your password on the next screen and leave everything empty.
