OK, I have a Windows XP Pro machine at home (workgroup)
that I set up user accounts for my wife and 3 kids. We
use the Welcome screen for everyone to login and only my
wife and I are Administrators, plus the Admin account.
This morning, my wife turned on the computer, logged in
and checked her email and then logged out. Later this
morning when I went to use the computer, my User account
was not displayed and the Admin account was locked out.
When I tried the control-alt-delete to bring ou th elogin
window and then tried to login under my account, the
message was that my account was locked out. When my wife
then went to login to her account so I could go into
Admin Tools and uncheck account lock out on my account,
the computer now has locked out my wife's account. In
other words, all admin accounts have been locked out and
the kids limited accounts are not. Anyone have any
suggestions what's going on and how to fix this?
Appreciate your help.
