Solved How do I get the log in screen to stop showing my log in on startup??

[billberry12]

I simply want it to open to my desktop, but I don't remember how to fix this.

Thanks,
Bill

Are you talking about where you enter in your password?

 

[billberry12]

Yes. But it does not require a password. I am the only user. It goes to the screen that shows my user name and I have to click on it to open to desktop. Before reinstall, it did not go there, it simply went to the desktop. I believe there is somewhere to fix this, but I have been to Users in Control Panel, and can't seem to find it.

now it goes to that same login screen on wake up from sleep. Any ideas????

1. Open Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options, click Require a password on wakeup

​

2. Click Change settings that are currently unavailable

​

3. Disable password request
