Strange I setup a auto login on my account, it workded a couple of boot.. now when I boot it dose not recignize the password and I can choose between user or email login.

Also when I first installed 8.1 on boot it dose not asked my once a password for login on boot. I had to reinstall it and format my hdd. And I get the above problem.

You would need to put in the correct password. We can't help you bypass the login password here on Tom's.

I do have the password, I enter it, log in to my computer. But I want it to stop asking for it.

Thanks, can I ask, what is the difference between user and home users.
Because I have 2 account with my email, one have users and the other one have users / home users beside it.

Thanks

See this link for Windows 8 user account info:

I assume one account is a local account and the other a Microsoft account.

The solution is to uncheck the account I want autologin.
Then enter twice the password, I tought just leaving it empty would work.
