Windows Messenger - auto sign in problem
Hi
Last time I used Windows Messenger, I must have ticked the box to automatically sign me in when I open the program - as I share a laptop with others, how can I get back to the situation that whoever uses it has to type in their passport and password before using the progam? Thanks very much. |

Windows Messenger - auto sign in problem
Greetings Kev,
To correct this, just click the Start Button, then click the Control Panel. Then, click User Accounts in the Control Panel. Select the Windows account name in question, and then on the left side of the screen, under Related Tasks, click 'Manage my Network Passwords'. In the window that opens, click the Passport.Net\* (Passport) entry and click 'Remove'. The saved Passport will then be gone. If you wish to force this and never allow anyone to save their Passport, download and run this .reg file: http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...lenetcreds.reg You'll need to reboot to see the change. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2006 Jonathan Kay.
