I have a desktop at home and is connected to my Microsoft account. Everytime I start it up I have to input my password. Since it's a desktop it'll stay at home the whole time. Are there anyway to remove the password but still be connected to the Microsoft account?

Yes you can!  Although you are not "removing" the password.  You're keeping the password you're just telling Windows to not ask for the password on boot.

 

First you need to open up "netplwiz" (use the Run command for this).

 

Then in the "User Accounts" dialog window there will be a option at the bottom that says "Users must enter a password to use this computer".  Simply uncheck this box and then click Ok!

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!
