Caution:
Apparently, there are reasons for you to avoid removing the windows password, among them security is the main concern. So don’t remove your windows password because if someone is not a hacker, can gain access to your PC. Oh, and by the way, the person must have physical access to your computer.

- Removing the password of your computer can increase security risks, specifically if you are on if you are traveling.
