Go to control panel\passwords\user profiles and check "all users of this pc
use the same...".   Next time u boot up, enter nothing and click ok, click
ok again to confirm.  If this doesn't help, delete *.pwl file in windows
folder, reboot, enter name in name field, leave password field blank, click
ok, click ok again to confirm.

Go into your Control Panel, open the Passwords applet, click on the
User Profiles tab, and click on the "all users have same profile"
button. Then close Win95, and either the next time you start Win95 or
the *time after that* you will no longer have to log on anymore. If it
requires the one more logon from you, of course, do it without
entering a password again, as you have been.

Check out the FAQ at my Web Site:

These and other questions will be answered:

'How can I stop Windows 95 prompting for a password every time it
starts?'
