    "Home Premium does not include the Local Security Policy Manager so you'll need to do a registry modification to enable the classic logon.

    Click on start and type "regedit.exe" withot quotes into the search field, hit enter.

    Expand the registry key:


    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

    Double-click on “dontdisplaylastusername” in the right pane and then modify the value to “1″

    Try this. Advanced Boot Options

    Select Repair you computer. From there select Restore your computer.
    Select a date before you made the registry change.

    That should fix it.

    If all you want to do is get rid of Adminiostrator on the login screen, open a Elevated Command prompt and enter

    net user Administrator active:no


    That will disable the Administrator account and it will no longer show up on the Login screen. To enable it again:

    net user Administrator active:yes
