Default Won't remember user name

Help,

I can't seem to get the Windows logon to remember me, (user name).

If I then 'logoff', I am then properly logged on with my correct user
name.

Once you are logged on, find all the *.pwl files and delete them (assumes
you are the only user). Reboot and when the logon screen appears, enter a
user name and password.

Ron,

Thanks for the input.

The solution was to delete the registry entry: 'AutoLogon'.

Nothing else worked. This was sorted out in a later thread:
'Start Menu Log Off there is no user name'.

Hi Dennis,

If I would have had the full details on your problem, I would have referred
you to a blurb that I wrote in the late 90s that is posted on my web site:

Good article. Yep, the answer is in your article regarding AutoLogon and
deleting the Registry entry.

I think that I actually did look at you site for the answer, but again,
I didn't look up the problem correctly.

The trick is to ask my question properly. That's why I finally posted my
question again, with a differnt description.

Thanks.
