My computer loads up a login screen but I'm the only user

I have a small problem.

In the last few days, on its own - my computer has started up a login screen whenever I start up Windows.

I am the only user on my computer so usually it would just go straight into my computer and load up all the normal stuff like MSN etc etc -

I went into Control Panel and the users section but even there it shows only one user - guest account is off

I don't understand this and how can I get rid of it so it just loads up normal - into the normal/my account or my windows whatever

Please help guys

The same thing happened to me - could be related to a windows update because I didn't change anything either, it just happened one time and I can't get rid of it now.

I'd be interested to know how I can bypass the login screen again, someone help us out!

Do what mps69 advised, and make sure that you un-tick the option to use the welcome page in controlpanel->change the way users log on.

If you're still having trouble, TweakUI has an option to autologon users.

or, if you dont want to use any third party apps, go to your "run" command in your start menu, and type this in the following

"control userpasswords2"

then, uncheck the "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer"

type in the account name (there should be only one since your the only one who uses the computer) that isnt the Administrator account exactly the way you see it with no password.

Click OK.

Apply.

Restart and you should see improvements.

If you need any help lemme know

I had this problem, just turn off fast user switching.
