 To simplify your logon procedure, you can eliminate the Windows password. Here’s how to prevent Windows 98 from prompting you for a password at startup:

1. In Control Panel, double-click Passwords.

2. Click the Change Passwords tab, click Change Windows Password, and then click OK.

3. In the Change Windows Password dialog box, type your current Windows password in the Old Password box. Leave the New Password and Confirm New Password boxes blank, click OK, and then click OK.

4. Click the User Profiles tab and verify that the "All users of this PC use the same preferences and desktop settings" option is selected. Click Close.

5. Shut down and then restart Windows 98.
