It's tedious to type my password every time I start my Windows 10 VM, especially since you can't paste a password into the box. I want to set up automatic login.
Following the instructions here I tried to disable the "Users must enter a user name and password" option in netplwiz. But the option isn't there! It should be above the "users for this computer" list. Is there a setting I need to change to allow me to change the setting?
Answer
It was because my VM was part of a domain (an organization in Windows 10 parlance). Removing the machine from the domain ("disconnecting from the organization") made the checkbox reappear and allowed me to enable auto-login.
