I have been trying to do this for awhile....I installed some of the new updates for WinXP and When I did this Now I get the Login Screen...


I only use ONE Profile on my Computer and that is mine without a password...

I tried to use Tweak UI for WINXP but it always resets so that it says "Welcome" ad then it goes into the Login screen where I have to click my name...


How can I get rid of this screen so my computer just loads up to the desktop?

None of those seem to mention what has happened here. When you installed the updates the .net framework update has likely setup a .net user account on your system that is not needed. So the system see it as more then one user account and wants to know which one to boot into.

You can simply go into user accounts in control panel and delete the .net user account and it will ask you if you want to remove the files associated with it. Tell it to keep the files but remove the account and reboot. Should then boot up like it did before the updates.

"If" the .Net user account doesn't show up in the control panel, a second way of getting rid of it:

Start, Run, type in control userpasswords2

Find the .Net user account and click on Remove.

Third way: Go into the Computer Management section, find Users, and you'll see it on the list...you can remove it from there as well.

Here's an illustration with pictures of how to bypass login,it pretty much says the same as the links above,you'll have to more than likley undo tweakui settings as well as any others you've done as it may cause conflicts with each one trying to do the same thing ??? also you did'nt delete .net1.1 did you?? as .net2.0 is not a replacement it's supposed to be used in conjunction with 1.1 as is .net3.0

And you may not need to download Tweak UI to log on automatically, depending on how your computer is set up. Windows will skip the Welcome screen and log you in as soon as it starts up if you meet these 3 requirements:

1. The "Use the Welcome screen" option is checked
2. There is only one account on the computer (i.e. Yours)
(for hard to delete accounts a.open control panel/adminstrative tools/computer management/system tools/local users and groups/users b. delete the account from here.
3. The account has no password
That's how my computer is set up
Actually without installing additional tools you just open Start | Run and type 'control userpasswords2' which will pop up showing a list of your users, you click on the one you want to automatically login, then you uncheck the box at the top and then it'll ask you to enter the password(if no password just leave blank) and re-enter it and that's it, auto-login. Reboot computer and it should work.
