User Account Login at StarUp

[PinkPanther 0]

Hello all,

 

I am at a loss finding the setting that will force my WinXP Pro machine to automatically log onto my account at Boot up. I am the only account on the machine, and every time I restart, Windows stops at the logon screen asking for my user name and password (this account has no password). So all I have to do is click on the OK button, and I log in, but I would like to skip this silly screen and the OK button. Is there anyway to have it start with a default account already logged in?

 

Thanks

Click on Start, Run and type "control userpasswords2" and press <enter>.

Get rid of the check mark "User must enter a username..." and after you click OK, enter your username and password.

 

Autologon is now set.

you can also download the tweakUI powertoy for XP to set this as well.
