Turning off User Logon Screen

[Craig Stone]

When I setup my new computer I apparently put my name, wife and son's name
as users. Now I get user login screen when I boot up. I don't want this.
How do I turn it off and stop the extra effort?

Thanks,

Craig

Hi

Try this:

From Start>Run type in

control userpasswords2

then uncheck 'Users must enter a user name and password to use this
computer' and click 'Apply'. On the next screen - 'Automatically Log On' -
delete the name 'Administrator' from the User name box and enter your
account name and then the password in the next two boxes. OK your way out
and then reboot your system.
