Network Login
Is there a way to change the network login user name? I am using my husband's
old computer and I would rather have the login name be mine. I can find how to change the password but not the user name. |

I can find how to change the password but not the user name. Go to Control Panel | Network and set the primary network logon to Windows Logon. Reboot the computer and log on with your name and no password. After that, it will automatically log you in with your name, without a logon prompt. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.
