103892 2002-12-07 01:28:00 I inadvertently selected the option to use a 'single sign-on' for all users during the installation of Windows XP Pro (actually it was in Win21k prior to upgradint to XP). I wish to use the Welcome Screen for the family but the previous setting over-rides each login. Please help me find where to turn this annoying feature off ! many thanks. cipher (1320)
103893 2002-12-08 02:12:00 Don't underestimate the usefulness of the Help system in XP. Go there and type in "welcome screen" for the info you need. linw (53)
103894 2002-12-08 07:57:00 Welcome screen is already turned on but the auto sign-on as Administrator over-rides it. Thanks anyway. Help didn't show much on solving this. cipher (1320)
103895 2002-12-08 23:25:00 I have now also checked the Local Security Policies but no luck. There is an "allow automatic Administrative logon" but this is already disabled. cipher (1320)
103896 2002-12-08 23:49:00 Try creating another user and Welcome screen should work :D SKT174 (1319)
103897 2002-12-09 04:16:00 it's worth a try ;) cipher (1320)
103898 2002-12-09 04:21:00 Nope. didn't work. Does anyone out there know XP ? Where is the moderator :( cipher (1320)
