Windows 8:Boot directly into desktop
By default, Windows 8 requires you to go through a password screen during the boot process before you can access its Start screen/desktop. But there is a way to disable it.
When you are on the Start screen, type netplwiz and hit enter. Select your user account and follow the on-screen instructions to boot directly into the desktop.
Similarly, by default, Windows 8 has a lockscreen enabled. This is not only annoying but also needless. To disable it, when you are on the desktop, press the Windows Key+R. Now type gpedit.msc in the Run window and hit enter.
This will open the Local Group Policy Editor window. From the folder tree on the left, navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Control Panel > Personalization. In the right panel, click on User Accounts > Personalization and then do not display the lock screen and select enabled.
If you do not have the Professional version, you will have to edit the registry. Download this registry hack (see link below), unzip the file and double-click Disable Lockscreen.
