Hello Peter:
I would try:
1. enter the current password.
2. change the password to blank.
Good Luck!

Hello list,
When I upgraded to Windows 10 Home Edition, I chose to require a
password on logging in.
How do I stopthe the password prompt??
I was told (by MS support) that the presence of Norton, and other anti
virus programs, prevented some of Windows 10 features from being
installed properly.
Before upgrading to Windows 10, I chose to remove the third party anti
virus program.
I thought I would rely on the Windows firewall and Defender.
I also thought that requiring a log on password would provide added
security.
Now I want to log on without the password prompt.
I can’t find a way to stop this feature.
Going through settings, all that I seem to be able to do is change the
password or add a new user account.
I haven’t done this, but I assume that If I add a new account, I
probably will start out with a blank desktop. I want to avoid going
through the setup process that I already did.
Is there a way to remove the requirement to sign on to Windows 10,
without the password prompt?
Thanks,
Peter T.
