Re: New user login issue

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Hi Ron, After doing some research I deleted the account, rebooted, typed
"control passwords2" and the box requiring users to create passwords was
UNchecked. I left it as is, created a new account without a password and
tried to switch user and login.

The login flashes the desktop for a split-second and then brings me back to
the login screen. A reboot did not change anything. Assigning a password does
not seem to have any effect.

Any other ideas come to mind?
