change default login ID for Vista Ultimate 64bit

**Anilrgowda** · 09-Jul-2007, 11:23 PM

using Windows Vista ultimate 32bit the computer was pre-configured to have a user (administrator). I added a user for myself (as administrator) and disbled the default 'Administrator' user. Passwords on both of course.

The problem is that Vista tries to logon to the disabled 'Administrator' at startup and I have to switch users to login. I want it to default to the login ID I added. Can this be done?

Go into that control panel
select your username (or click the Add button and type it in)
Untick the box that says "Users must enter a password...."
Click OK
It'll ask you for your password - enter it in or leave blank if you don't have one
