Control Center, System, Login Manager, Convenience, Enable auto-login.
You then need to choose the user you want to have auto-login to use.
There is also a check box for Truly automatic login but not sure what
that is. I have not used this feature for a some years.
As always, be careful which user you pick. Not sure I would use root if
I were you but, it's your system...
