Auto login on Vista

Post by thewolfe »

Since I had to create a password for Vista it asks me for it every time.

Is there a way around it.

I see there's no \"Tweakui\" for Vista.

Run \"control userpasswords2\" (without quotes) click the \"Manage Passwords\" button then uncheck \"Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer.\", enter a vaild user/pass and the system will automatically login to that account on startup.

Just FYI, same thing works in XP so you never needed TweakUI to do it.

I totally agree.

I was just thinking today that I use to use 4 or 5 different forums but haven't for some time \"cause\" I'm well treated here.
