Hello, all. I have XP pro and all of a sudden the only
login user choice I have is administrator. What happened,
or what have I done? Thank you, thank you, thank you for
responding in advance!!!
 
1st. Check if the other accounts are still on the computer (ex. if sth. didn't delete them)
2nd. Run regedit and go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList" and check if the account names are not on the list with the dword value of (0). If any of them is, change the value to 1 and they will appear again on login screen.
 
Hey, thanks for the info. I will try this. Much
appreciated!!

I finally tried your suggestion, but there are none of my
local accounts listed in the reg key you describe below.
Anything else? The profiles are listed under Documents &
Settings, however. Thanks to all who reply!!!
