My XP installation CD is created with "Unattended CD creator" where in i checked the auto login check box while creating the unattended XP Disk.

How do I turn the feature OFF in my insalled OS?? At present i ve changed my passwd so that the auto login prompts me an error message and then shows the login dialog to type my password...

Hoping for your solutions,, techies..

Control Panel-> User Account - > Change the way users log on or off-> Use Welcome Screen [check the box]

Type control userpasswords2 in RUN dialog box and enable the option "Users must enter username and password to use this computer".

Hi Vishal,
I think You are right. Basically this command is used to Disable or enable the Autologin in Windows XP SP2.

Thanks buddy....
