Start-up sign in box

[SandyO]

How do I stop the sign in box that has my name and a place for a password in
it from showing up at Start-up? I just finished some upgrades for my
motherboard and this box started showing up. I leave the password blank and
click "ok" and it goes away but I would rather not see it.
Thanks, SandyO

.. Go to the Start Menu and the Run box.
.. Type in the following:
control userpasswords2
.. now click OK
.. In the new Windows that appears select the account you wish to make the
primary logon.
.. Now uncheck the "Users must enter a username and password..." box.
.. Hit Apply and a dialog box will appear asking you to confirm the selected
users password.

Click OK.
The changes will work the next time you restart your computer.

How to Enable Automatic Logon in Windows

Hi Sandy,

Start/run "control userpasswords2" (without the quotes).

Uncheck the box requiring a username and password, click apply/ok and follow
the prompts to set up a default logon.
