At the moment it is still possible to create an administrator account with no password (in fact, it defaults to this, and entering a password requires a separate operation). I think this is an unnecessary security risk. I understand that many users want a password-free user experience, but I think the time has come to restrict this to standard accounts.

it will just make windows more annoying.

Please don't. I hear where you are coming from, but not everyone is using Windows the way you might think. For instance I have a dedicated Media Center PC where it is useful, and in some cases neccesary, to run it as an admin. The box doesn't even have a physical keyboard, so the need to enter a password would be burdensome. As the box isn't used for many of the ordinary task you might associate with a PC, it isn't exposed to the same kinds of risk.

I am quite happy the way it is. Thank you.

As long as zero network access is allowed with accounts with no passwords, I don't see a huge problem.
