You're describing the LOGIN screen. The WELCOME screen says WELCOME on it and has the little flowers at the bottom. </p> http://forum.werockyourweb.com/windows/hide-windows-7-welcome-screen-or-auto-logon#post-564 Sat, 02 Oct 2010 15:58:14 +0000 Anonymous 564@http://forum.werockyourweb.com/ <p>thx, its useful! </p> http://forum.werockyourweb.com/windows/hide-windows-7-welcome-screen-or-auto-logon#post-276 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 09:23:01 +0000 cwd 276@http://forum.werockyourweb.com/ <p>Hi Sally,</p> <p>There is a way to do this, although we only recommend using this approach if you are the sole user on your PC in a private environment, as it can prove a security risk.</p> <p>Here's how to auto login a Windows 7 user (ie. disable the Welcome Screen):</p> <p>Hit the Windows Key on your keyboard (usually bottom left, between Ctrl and Alt) and hit "R". This will bring up the "Run" command screen. From here, you want to type in <strong>control userpasswords2</strong> and hit Enter.</p> <p>This will bring up a <strong>User Accounts</strong> screen with the users on your PC. Select your user, and then uncheck the box labeled "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer." Make sure you do this for all users, although in this case there should only be one (you, the administrator).</p> <p>Save and reboot. Windows 7 should log you in now without showing the welcome screen. </p> http://forum.werockyourweb.com/windows/hide-windows-7-welcome-screen-or-auto-logon#post-275 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 09:18:23 +0000 Sally301 275@http://forum.werockyourweb.com/ <p>Is there a way to hide the welcome screen in Windows 7 - similar to how I was able to in Windows XP, so the one user on my PC (me) auto logs on? Ie. I want my PC to boot straight into Windows 7, without having to click on my username each time. Is there a way to do this? </p>
