Windows 98 Question - Disabling the Logon Screen

[Banzai]

I have an extream dislike for the pointless logon screen that I get when I reboot. Is their any way I can disable it, so that it goes directly to my desktop?

Yes there is a way to do it! :teeth:

Darned if I remember how to do it though, LOL! Right now I have the log-in screen showing up since I had set up a second alias (that I never use anymore) but I should switch it back too, it'd be faster. So I'll be checking back here for the answer too, LOL.

Brad, do you have the need to have a password when you log onto your computer everytime? I only ask because the only way I know to get around this is to delete the .pwl file. You can find it by searching for *.pwl It should be your logon username (if you use one) and one called default.pwl Don't worry if you delete one you needed all you'd have to do is redo your password. By deleting all this and never use a password you'll always get rid of that log on screen. Let me know if that works for you.
