The automatic login feature proves useful when your Windows 10 computer is SOLELY for your use, with no one else accessing or borrowing the device. If shared or used by other users, this automatic login feature may pose inconveniences.
In practical terms, activating the automatic login feature after restarting Windows 10 on a shared computer diminishes the significance of setting up a Windows 10 password. With this feature, you need not set up a Windows 10 password as it functions akin to logging into online accounts without re-entering your password.
