Eliminating The Login

Recommended Posts

A while back we were having a problem networking our PC's. (Which turned out to be a configuration problem on our linksys router).We fought with the configuration for ages on both PC's (Not sure which one was giving the problem.) In the process of doing this, we added a 2nd user to my PC which now I can't seem to get rid of. Since adding this 2nd user, I have to login with a password every time I sit down at the PC.Can someone help me retrace my steps so I can eliminate this?Thanks,Gin

You may be able to get back to you original configuration by deleting the second user. Right click My Computer>Manage>Local Users and Groups>Users. From there just delete the second user. If XP still asks for a password then you can go into properties for the user and set the password to nothing. In any case I highly discourage this practice as this makes your machine have weaker security.Another alternative is to launch TweakUI and find a section that shows the users that are displayed on the welcome page. I don’t know if it will auto login with more than one user account but it is worth a try.

I'll start with this and see if it asks for a password next time. Thanks.

BTW ... OS is Xp with SP2

Thanks for your thoughts.
