Hi all:

I'm trying to change default XP login screen (where you
can't type in account ids, they are displayed) to the
classic login screen (where you can type-in the account
id's). I think I saw it but don't remember how to do it.
(The problem is that I don't see all of the accounts in
the list, I want to login as a different admin account
but it won't show that account).

I'll appreciate any help.


Thank you,

Inam.
 
Hi Inam,

Start/Control Panel/Users/Change the Way users log on or off...

Manual:

This setting controls which type of logon screen is shown, either the
classic Windows NT/2000 format or the Windows XP welcome screen.

Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\
CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
Value Name: LogonType
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = Classic Mode, 1 = Welcome Screen)

Enable/Disable Administrator on Welcome Screen (Line 5)
