Go to "Control Panel\User Accounts and Family Safety\User Accounts" and "choose Remove your password". Type your current password there and you're done.

Since the security features are enhanced on Windows, this happens when the password is enabled on the computer to ensure for the more protection for your user account, however you may disable the password and check if that helps you. You may disable the password at your own risk.
Here are steps to disable the password after waking from sleep.
1. Click Start.
2. Click Control Panel.
3. Click Power Options.
4. Click on “Require Password on Wakeup” on the left pane.
5. Select the option “Don’t require a password.”
Note: when your computer wakes from sleep, anyone can access the data because the computer isn’t locked.
