I have one user defined on the machine, say "myprofile," defined as an
administrative user. Until recently when I logged on the machine booted up
directly to the desktop without offering me any logon screen or any need
to
choose users.
Then last week I briefly experimented with having different users, making
user myprofile to be limited - this and that. I abandoned all these
changes
in the end end, and went back to just how things were.
However, Windows now presents a logon screen with a choice between
myprofile
and the default "administrator" user. This is completely un-necessary. Is
there any way to get rid of it, and boot up as myprofile by default?
(There
are no passwords.)
Many thanks
