Re: Silent User

When I boot I have (had) 2 options.
1. Log on as me using my fingerprint
2. Log as me with a Uid and Pwd

I now have a 3rd icon offering me the chance to log on as this new (admin)
account.
Can this account be removed from the log on options?
I use this account to start SQL Server /SQL Agent. This account also has SA
privileges in SQL.
It is not an account that would ever "log on" to Windows.
