How can you remove password from screen saver

One of the options of a screen saver is to password-protect your computer after the screen saver kicks in. This is security feature that helps prevent someone from sitting down at your PC and using it if you leave it unattended.

This is a good option to leave on if you want to prevent unauthorized use of your PC, but can be a bit frustrating if it is only you who are using the computer or if you don’t mind someone else sitting down at the keyboard when you are not using it.

If you are using the screen saver that is built in to Windows 8 you simply need to change the settings that is causing it to require a password to get out of the screen saver.

Open up the Control Panel and click on Appearance and Personalization. In the Personalization section click on Screen Save. Here you can choose whether or not to enable password protection.
