Hi,
I have just updated my XP home and Pro machines with the lastest updates.
With the Pro machine it updated SP3. The home machine has not been updated to
SP3 yet, but it too started bringing up the login screen after some auto
updates a couple of months ago. I wish updates would not change the settings.
Before the updates the startup would go straight to the windows screen, but
now on both machines it goes to the "User Login Screen".
I have read through the other knowledge base questions and replies, and in
one case it said to use "control userpasswords2" and un-tick the box for
"Users must enter a user name and password..." This I tried, and did work,
BUT, the problem now is it boots up to administrator every time, does not go
to my wives account. And I then have to switch to her account for her to use
her settings.
I just hate having to click on the user everytime the computer starts, and
as they are family computers there is no need to hide information from each
other.
Thanks in advance for any replies and advice. Kevin.
