This logon screen is the same as the Switch User screen. Logon Automatically Hope this helps, Shawn |

| Guest | Re: Automatic Login and then Logout Brink, thanks for your answer. I want to login automatically and then switch user, in order to every time the PC is turned on, all my programs (within my session) start automatically. So when I login with my password the first time, I don't have to wait to load all programs. "Brink" wrote:

I see now. It seems like a lot of trouble to save just a bit of time, but it's your computer and decision after all. There is no way to do this by default, but you can try this workaround to see if it will work the way you want it to. When you logon to the other account from the "Switch User" logon screen, you will still need to wait for it to load up that user account's startup items though. 1. Create a "Switch User" shortcut using this tutorial. Switch User Desktop Shortcut 2. Move that shortcut into the Start menu "Startup" folder of the user account that you have set Vista to automatically logon to. You can see how to in this tutorial. If Method One does not work, then try Method Two. Startup Programs - Enable or Disable Hope this works for you, Shawn | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
