Long delay to reply but you proved to be right, except that there is one
more step. In the opening screen you have to temporarily check the box for
requiring names and passwords, select the user account, open it and then
change the setting so that Windows will automatically do the logon. On the
way back out I unchecked the box and now the wife's computer boots up
without interruption.
