| Guest | Re: how hide adminitrator account on logon page, without disable it Do you have additional account except the built-in Administrator? If yes, the built-in Admin should not appear on logon screen, I think. -- Junxiu Li [MS-MVP - Windows Shell /User] http://vista.itecn.net "James" <Twinsen24@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:OCPLBlv5GHA.4304@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Hi people, > > i think everything is in the title ;-) > > "how hide adminitrator account on logon page, without disable it" > > > > Thx a lot > > |

I don't know if that's there, but it might be. gpedit.msc, run as administrator. -- Rock [ MVP User/Shell] |

| Guest | Re: how hide adminitrator account on logon page, without disable i Try Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP, concrete Tweak UI (http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...rtoySetup.exe). Maybe it does work on Vista... If yes, you can hide picture of anyone user from welcome screen.

| Guest | Re: how hide adminitrator account on logon page, without disable i I am reading lately the current XP powertoys have compatibility issues with Vista when you try to uninstall them. Where is the Administrator account and how do I log into it? By default, the Administrator account in Windows Vista does not require a password, its blank. The Administrator is only accessible through Safe Mode also. You can enable the Administrator account after installation if you did an upgrade from Windows XP. Click Start > right click Computer > click Manage > expand Local Users and Groups > select Users > right click the Administrator account > click Set Password. After which, you can try logging in. -- Andre Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta "Frey" <Frey@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C5D3B0F3-442E-4187-A298-8248F0965B3A@microsoft.com... > Try Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP, concrete Tweak UI > (http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...rtoySetup.exe). > Maybe it does work on Vista...
