Hello,
Wondering if someone can help me,

When i use my computer i normally turn it on and it boots and goes in to windows directly as i set myself as the administrator some time ago.
Not sure whats happened now,
but when i boot up i get to a screen which asks me to enter a password to log on
How do i turn this off to directly getinto windows and to toggle this on/off

TweakUI (http://www.short-media.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=8591) will do it.

Go to the Logon>>Autologon section, enter username and pw once, then you're set. :)

There was a link in my previous post. In case it's not working I'll attach the program. After you unzip the program you may have to right-click on tweakui.inf, then left-click on "Install".

TweakUI is one of Microsoft's "PowerToys". It was developed by the same programmers who worked on Windows, but is not officially supported by Microsoft. It allows you to mess around with all sorts of settings in Windows.
