    Automatic Logon Problem.


    I have setup the Administrator account as well as my User account. Neither are passworded!

    When I am in the Administrator account, I can switch to my User account by clicking the profile picture etc, and vice versa.

    There are two problems I am facing.

    [1] On the live system, when switching, or logging in or out between the two accounts, I get a hung login screen which shows the time and date. I then have to click the desktop first in order to get to the logon screen, which then shows the two user accounts in the bottom left-hand corner. I then have to click Sign in. I would like it to sign in automatically to whichever user account I want to use instead of having to click Sign in.

    [2] When I boot windows, it automatically loads the last user logged in, thereby not giving me the option of selecting one of the two accounts. It would be nice to be able to click either of the user accounts in the bottom left-hand corner and get it to sign in automatically, without the need to click Sign in.

    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    Mapped network drives do not connect at logon in vista with automatic logon enabled

    I have vista x64 . I have some mapped network drives . They get connected when i enter the password at logon screen. Now i enabled automatic logon in vista and they do not connect anymore . I have to double click on them and enter the password manually .

    Windows displays the message "Could not connect to all drives" at logon .

    They used to connect automatically in xo with automatic logon enabled.

    My logon password is the same as the administrator password with which i can connect to these drives .

    Automatic Logon Problem.

    laptop doesnt boot automatically

    This is what happened.

    1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
    2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
    3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
    4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
    5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
    6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

    I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

    Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
