Is there a setting inside classic Shell that will allow me to automatically log in? I'm using Windows 8 and I am the only user but every time my computer boots up I have to put in a password to login. I know that if I install TweakUI I can do it I am just wondering if there is a setting in classic sell that will do it. Thank you very much in advance for any help you may be able to offer me.

No, Classic Shell doesn't have such setting. It doesn't even run until you log in.
You need to use an alternative way for logging in automatically.

You can set up auto login using Windows itself. Type: control userpasswords2 into the Run dialog or Start Menu's search box and set up auto login.
