Microsoft account to connect to the pc

I use the same Microsoft account to connect to my pc.

How can I remove the password to connect to my pc so that other members

my family can still use the pc without having to use a password and don't have access to my emails, facebook and so on.

I bought this pc for family use, not in the form of tablets, so that it can be used by each and every one of us.

You have several options to choose from depending on your situation.

  1. Because it is used from sites Web/email/online, it is not possible to remove a password from the Microsoft online Account itself.  But you can completely detach your Microsoft Account email address of the PC entirely, so that it uses just a local PC account, which then you could also delete the password too (so it would work like Windows 95-7).

    The drawback here is that you lose some impressive functionality as SkyDrive synchronize all your settings and backup files and others.  If it is not important to you, then this might be a good solution.  But it also means that everyone could watch your emails and facebook and other because all they would have to do is open the Mail or Facebook application and place your orders. So maybe you don't want that.

    If you want this option, open the PC, go to account settings and use the option "disconnect".

  2. A better option might be to create a new account for the family to share.  Maybe even call the login 'family '.  Then whenever you want to use your e-mail personal/facebook/etc, you can go to your account and then switch back to the family in a single tap anytime account. Or even create one login for each person so they can all have their own little custom view of what they love, plus their own e-mail and facebook etc.

    Switching between accounts is easy, click or tap your name on the start page.  I have a guest on my computer so my roommate or friends account can use the computer without having access to my stuff:

"or below cela" the following user ' to add details. I'm afraid that someone is trying to take over my computer. I have run Norton anti virus. How to stop what appears and get rid of it. This is a major threat. Paul

    Hi Paul,

    1. what anti-virus software do you use?

    2 you use the password while logging on to the user account?

    I suggest you of change the logon window and the shutdown preferences in Windows XP to resolve the problem.

    Setup configures Windows XP to use the friendly welcome logon screen and close buttons, if your computer is installed as a computer (a computer where a network domain has not been specified).

    This article describes how you can enable the classic logon screen used by Windows XP Server that resembles the following example:

    Log on to Windows

    User name: _______
    Password: __________

    To temporarily use the classic logon screen, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete twice on the Welcome logon screen.

    To configure Windows XP to use the classic logon and shutdown for each logon screens, follow these steps:

    a. click Startand then click Control Panel.
    b. double-click user accounts.
    c. click on change the way users log on or off the power.
    d. Click to uncheck the use the Welcome screen check box.

    Note: If you disable the Welcome logon screen, you also disable the fast user switching option.

    If you want users to press CTRL + ALT + DEL before the classic logon appears like a Windows XP-based computer that is joined to a domain, follow these steps:

    a. click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box and then click OK.
    b. click the Winlogon subkey at the following registry location:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
    c. click change, click newand then click DWORD value.
    d. to change the name of the value, type DisableCADand press ENTER.
    e. keep the data value set to 0. The set of data values appear as 0x00000000 (0).

    Warning: Ask users to press CTRL + ALT + DEL before the classic logon screen appears.

    If you don't want that, then come back in a classic.

    After my new account Microsoft a link to my original Skype account, I'm still able to sign into account newly merged with the old Skype account username and password. Of course, I am also able to connect to the account merged with the Microsoft Mail and as well password account.

    My question is this, is this a planned security measure? As far as I know, support faq suggested using the Microsoft account to connect to the newly merged account. The support page is in the link given.

    I thought that once the merger of Skype accounts both Microsoft, the only method to sign the merged account is using the Microsoft account only. Please enlighten me on this matter. Thank you.

    This works as expected. When you link a Microsoft account with Skype account name, you should be able to connect to Skype, either by using Skype or Microsoft account name. Two connection options will lead to the same account.
