  I just installed Windows 10 & a search & subsequent opening of 
control userpasswords2 shows the option. I tested with a restart and it works. You do need to put your password in twice in the last step however before the auto-sign-in will work.
ie: Use 
File explorer & type/copy-paste in 
control userpasswords2 & the accounts panel will automatically open after you press Enter key on keyboard (or whatever it's called on Windows PC's.) Uncheck the option as shown then press Apply & OK buttons, then in the Auto-Sign-in panel that will open after this, choose the account on the computer you wish it to apply to & type in their password twice. In the last image example I whited-out the account User name.
