- Default User
- Posted by ProfessorPiggy on December 29th, 2005
On my computer I used to only have one user that would be logged in
automatically when my computer started up. Let's assume this user is called
"admin".
I recently installed a download, I cannot remember it's exact name, but
basically it allows me to use .NET programs.
Now, when my computer is logged on, I am asked to click on my username to
log on, even though "admin" is the only one in the list.
In my control panel I can see "admin" and "ASP.NET Machine A...".
How do I make it so "admin" will log in automatically again without removing
the use of .NET programs?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Start | Run, type "control userpasswords2" Select the account you want to
logon to automatically. Then uncheck the box "Users must enter a user name
and password to use this computer."
Or do the same thing with TweakUI.

To add to the other posts, you can add the Dialog box that comes up when
running control userpasswords 2 to the Control Panel with the following
tweak:
Add Control User Passwords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1)
