It is my daughters computer running XP Pro. Currently she has Admin
rights.
But when the Welcome screen us up, only her login (and icon) displays.
I know I can go thru the User Accounts and get rid of the welcome screen,
however, that is the way she wants it. I really don't want the login box,
just a login off of the welcome screen.
I think, if I change her to a regular user, then the Admin will always
display..giving two options on the Welcome Screen. I don't want to
changer
her user rights either. I also realize, with her as an Admin, I should be
able to do everything from her account too.
I still would like both to display on the Welcome Screen (I know... weird
question).

How can I force the Administrator Login to appear in the Welcome
Screen....
along with the (single) regular user of this pc?
I simply want both to display if possible.
Brother Numepsy said:How to Add the Administrator Account to the Welcome Screen
Like to use the Welcome screen to log on, but annoyed because the
administrator account doesn't appear as one of the choices? Here's how to
add it:
1.. Click Start | Run and type regedit to open the Registry Editor.
2.. Navigate to the following key:
HKEY LOCAL
MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MicrosoftWindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\
UserList
3.. Right click in the right pane and select New | DWORD value
4.. Create a value and name it Administrator
5.. Assign a data value of 1.
6.. Close the Registry Editor.
7.. Reboot the computer.
Or just do ctrl+alt+del three times when the welcome screen is up, and you
will get a login dialog.
