"Picking a winner!"
Posts: 8,502
Ok, I'm sure I've sorted this before but now I have no idea what I have done or how to change it back. Suggestions please.

Right a few days ago I was just cleaning up the computer, under the users accounts part there was one called something like .NET .ASP MachineA or something along those lines, well having never seen it before I got rid of it.

Now when the computer starts up I get a screen asking for a name and password, before it was the one that allowed you to click on which user you want to load (But I don't want that either as before it just loaded straight up into my account)

So any idea how to change it back so that it just boots up into the one account?

Thank you very much.

A long time ago I installed that and turned D:/ and E:/ off in the drivers section of tweakUI. I unistaleld the thing and havnt been able to select the CD-Rom or rewriter form an exploer window since.

That was about 7 months ago.

Thanks

Go into Control Panel, click user accounts, You might see another account besides 'you' and 'guest' click on it and hit delete files.

This should do the trick, usually happens when doing windows updates.

Hope that helped,
Danny

I used system restore to kind of get it back to the way it was which will do for now.

Have you got TweakUI?

If you haven't [URL]http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx[/URL]

When it's installed click on the + next to logon and then click autologon and enter your user details there etc.
