Set Up Automatic Login on Linux Mint for Faster System Access

If you want to log in to your Linux desktop automatically after boot, consider enabling the auto-login feature on Linux Mint.

It's certainly annoying when you leave your Mint desktop idle for a couple of minutes only to be welcomed by a login screen asking you to enter your password again. What if you're the only one using the computer and don't want to type your lengthy and secure password every time you want to log in?

Luckily, Linux Mint offers an easy, graphical way to enable or disable automatic login. We'll show you how.
