This tweak is popular for its convenience, but as said above it exposes your password to anyone looking for it.

Start > Run > Type Regedit

Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Find DefaultUserName - Enter the user account to be logged on.

Right click > create string value > name it DefaultPassword - Enter the account password.

Find AutoAdminLogon - 0 for no, 1 for yes.

Alternatively, to avoid editing the registry and avoid exposing your password, use tweakui. A powertoy from Microsoft.
