Was cleaning my computer and decedided to make Users for all my friends, and
for some reason it switched to the regular windows login where u type your
username and password and u can only log off, cant switch users. Was
wondering how to get the screen listing all users to show back up? O on a
side note when windows ask if u want to make your user account files
private... how can u make them public again, decided there was a bunch of
stuff my friends did need on my account after i made it all private lol.

Hi,

On the logon screen thingy:

Go to Start => Run and type in "regedit" {without the quotes}

Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
In the right-hand pane look for Dword Value named 'LogonType'
A Value of 0 is the Classic Mode style. A Value of 1 is the XP Welcome
Screen.
Double-click on LogonType to Modify the decimal Value.
Exit the Registry and Restart your computer.

Hello again,

In Control Panel => User Accounts => Change the way users log on or off
Do you have 'Use the Welcome screen' and 'Use Fast User Switching' both
selected?
