Automatic selection of user account at welcome screen of Win XP SP
Good day,
I realize this isn't a major issue but I don't like when things have changed on my computer that I haven't requested. Basically after installing the .NET framework update that came down (and having to reinstall IIS in the process to get that to work), I find that at the welcome screen I no longer have to click my user account to get the password entry box to appear, it's done automatically. I am running Windows XP Professional SP3. I've spent a lot of hours trying to find a setting that would cause this. I am not sure if it is related but the defaultuser in the winlogin section of the registry is always being populated when I logoff/restart. I am also the only account that shows up, but that never mattered before this last update. I tried deleting that but it keeps coming back. Part of the problem is the "problem" occurs at start up before I'm logged in to run anything to see what is happening. Anyone have any pointers or thoughts of what I can look for to keep working on this? (May be some typos/errors in what I am mentioning here) I've researched policy's and groups and tried lots of combinations of things in there I've tried messing around with the winlogin part of the registry I've tried control usrpassword2 settings I've tried lusrmgr settings Please don't waste anyone's time flaming, cause unless you know everything, there is something you don't know too. And I'm thinking of a number, do you know what it is? |
