Automatic Login after installing .NET

[DavidJ726]

After installing .NET which is required for DriveImage, I no longer am
logged in automatically when I start my PC. I used tweakui to automatically
log me in but after a subsequent reboot (or after the screen saver is
activated) that option becomes disabled. I also cheked to see if there were
any clearly defined services I could disable, but didn't see anything that
explicitly seemed .NET related for a single user PC. As the only user on
this PC I' rather not have that unnecessary step, do I have any options? I
searched the MS KB but didn't find anything there...

Thanks,

David...

NetNut,

Thanks for the tip. It does exactly what I need / want. Based on your tip
I then searched for userpasswords2 at MSKB and found article 315231 which
was also helpful.

The Net Framework adds another user, thus your issues. I know you have it
solved. This note is to add a tip:

Add Control UserPasswords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1)

In TweakUI Logon page uncheck the box to 'Show ASPNET on the Welcome
screen' which will have been added by the .NET installation. Then set
up the autologon afresh
