    only display one account with Switch User button


    Hi,

    I have Windows 7 Pro and have two accounts, a Standard User and an Administrator account. The logon screen by default shows two icons, one for each account. I want the logon screen to default to only showing the Standard User account and have the admin account accessible by clicking the Switch User button. Is there a way someone knows of doing this?

    thanks

    Try this


    Run>secpol.msc

    Local policies -> Security settings

    Find the entry "Interactive Logon: Hide last user..." and set it to activated.

    Reboot.

    For 7 and Vista
