Vista Login??

[Howard Huntley]

How can I turn off the Vista login page listing all the local accounts
and login using the windows workgroup logon badge that looks like the
domain login with the two lines for entry of username and password. I
am using Vista Home Premium edition. Can any one tell me how to turn
this feature off and turn on the Vista login badge??

In Windows Vista, you can enable automatic login whenever system starts up
with netplwiz command. Just follow the following guide to use netplwiz to
disable enter username and password requirement.

1. Click on Vista Orb Start button.

2. Type netplwiz into the Instant Search box, and press Enter.

3. If User Access Control window pops up to ask for permission,
click "Continue".

4. At the User Accounts window, uncheck and clear the "Users must
enter a username and password to use this computer." option, and click OK.

5. In the Automatically Log On window, input the user ID and
password for the user account that you want to Vista to automatically login
when starting up, and click OK when done.

6. Restart computer.

I don't think that this is what he asks. I understand you want to "change
the way users logon", like we did with XP.
Follow th instruction explained by the previous post but use the Advanced
tab and under secure logon select "require users......"
I haven't enabled it but I believe it must be this.
