Windows XP Logon

[TiziteLayinLow]

After I reformatted and installed all the windows updates, it requires that i click my name to logon to windows. I do not want this. There is only one user, where is the setting for this?

thanks,

Control Panel \ User Accounts \ Change the way users log on and off of this computer.

Uncheck 'Use Welcome Screen'

Try using the Hidden Windows XP Administrators Username Control Panel:

At the Command Prompt type:

CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2

This is best done when you initially set up your computer. There is an option to have a single username.

I strongly recommend you make a save point before you do anything like this in case you want to go to your previous settings. Sometimes you lose all of previously saved information.

Wow! I just installed XP today myself and I was wondering how to do that.
