WinXP Default Login (with .NET installed)

[dangfx]

Hey everyone,

I just installed .NET 1.1, but now every time i start the computer, it logs right into the Administrator account automatically, not my own account (which also has Admin privelidges). How can i change it so that it goes back to starting up in my own account, not the new Administrator account?

The TweakUI Powertoy will let you specify which user/account you want to autologin.

not sure about XP Home if it's different or not but on XP Pro if you:

Click Start>Run...
Type "control userpasswords2" (without the quotes)
Check the box next to "Users must enter a username & password"
Click OK

Should take care of it

If you select (highlight) the account you want to login with and "then" remove the check mark in the box next to "Users must enter a username & password" you should auto login to that account without having to enter your password. You may have to turn off the welcome menu for this to work.
