Thank you for help.
I did as you suggested, but left the usename and password blank as I do not
need them.
I now have a message on start up "Logon Message. Unable to log you on
because of account restriction." I click OK and go back to "To begin, click
your user name." Which is what I am trying to avoid.
How can I turn on the PC and go straight to the Desktop as I used to do?
