I use XP Prof. which I have had to reinstal recently. Ever since on
bootup I get a screen asking for a password, which is blank. On
pressing ok it continews to load XP.

This screen did not appear before reinstal. Anyway I can remove it
please?

Load up Control Panel, go to Users & Passwords

Uncheck "Users must enter a user name and password"

Click OK.
 
Hi,

1. Go to Start/Run and type in: control userpasswords2 and press ok.

2. On the Users tab, clear the Users Must Enter A User Name And Password To
Use This Computer check box and then click OK.

3. In the Automatically Log On dialog box that appears, type the user name
and password for the account you want to be logged on each time you start
your computer.

Tip:

Add Control UserPasswords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1)

*laughs* I gotta love your "tips"

It's like saying - try these steps.

Then at the end of the tops, "Actually, in order for this to work, you need
to add a registry! Visit myw ebsite for that registery, oh and more others!"

You just made the newbie all lost & confused!

Why do we need to add this registry when we don't have to do?
 
There is nothing to insinuate in order for this to work.....

That said, as a matter of fact, it is actually a very helpful "tip" for
those who use control userpasswords2 often and don't keep Run history.

Have a great day!
