Startup to desktop, not Welcome Screen or Accounts screen jeff:P 6/12/2007 5:21:01 PM When I startup my WXP it currently goes to the ‘Accounts’ screen. I am the only account on the computer. The only one who uses it. When I boot I want to go straight to the Desktop. How do I make this happen?

Re: Startup to desktop, not Welcome Screen or Accounts screen "JS" <[ at ]> 6/12/2007 5:45:04 PM Try Power Toy's Tweak UI from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx Install, run and under Logon you will find check boxes to select the accounts you want displayed and in the Autologon you can choose to Enable/Disable it by Checking or un-checking the 'Logon automatically' option.

Start | Run, type "control userpasswords2" Select the account you want to logon to automatically. Then uncheck the box "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer." Or do the same thing with TweakUI. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP Windows - Shell/User Please Reply to the Newsgroup
