Hi there,
Why does Outlook automatically log me into my Email without me having to type my email address or password? When I turn my computer on, I go to my Desktop and click on the Outlook icon to open up my email. It is logging me into that email without me even having to enter my password information, and quite frankly, I find this very unsettling. This means that anyone who uses my computer once it is turned on, can access my email without my permission. How can I correct this so Outlook asks me to enter my email address and password each time I want to log into my email? Thanks.

Your situation is different.
You are using Windows 7.
Are you also using a program to clean your Registry?
Is it windows 8?Or outlook,,or internet explorer.Where is the privacy at here anyway?
Is your Windows user account password protected?
I'm using windows 8.1. I have the same problem. When I go to the Oulook.com sign in, it automatically logs me in. I have deleted all histories. I can't stop it. I removed the credentials and it still happens.
No,there are a number of us that have that trouble,until i can fix it,,anyone can go straight to my e-mail with one click.
