Hi..

Can someone please tell me how to get the "administrator" account to display
on the welcome screen? Thank you very much!

Unfortunately, I am running XP home! Anything for it? Thanks.

For Home, you can only see the account in safe mode. It is so by dessign.

I downloaded this few days ago but nowhere do I see a setting for
"administrator" account! Maybe this feature is only activated for XP pro
systems! Thanks anyway.

Thanks José! So, I should just give up on that?

It's better. I'm sorry.

I agree, give up on that. It doesn't appear to be available in TweakUI either, as I
checked it out. I'm running Home as well.

Sarah,

In XP Home, you can login as built-in Administrator from Safe Mode only.
When you try to login in Normal mode, you'll get a restrictions error.
