Similar issue here. I created a secondary account following this
procedure:
Open User Accounts and unlock it with my administrator password.
Create a new account
Type: Administrator
FullName: Testme
Username: testme
Once created, click on the user. Under Login options, the Password displays
'Account Disabled'. Click on 'Account disabled' and a popup will open.
Set the Action dropdown (for the Change password popup) to 'Login
without a password' and click Change. Close the User Accounts window
and logout.
Test the new Testme account to make sure it can login without a
password.
Under the Testme account, open User Accounts and highlight the Testme.
Under Login options, the password field should display None. Click on
None to open the Change Password popup. Select the 'Set Password now'
option and enter a valid password. Close the User Accounts window and
logout.
Although the Testme account now has a password, you can still log into
it without a password.
