Name of the computer that makes @ startup

Why my computer window name/description pop up on startup for all users?  He will just accept the name of the current computer and or the description or change it.  He does whenever you log in.  Just started recently... days.

Is there a setting I can change to avoid this problem?

Hello charrohl,

Check and see if the system is configured to start under startup programs. Check if the system properties box is displayed at startup.
The file is called, SYSDM.cpl.

  1. Go to start button, Control Panel, Security Center, in the left pane, open Windows Defender.

  2. Click Tools, and then click Software Explorer.

  3. In the category box, click startup programs.

  4. Select the program you want to run and then click on disable.

  5. Click Yes to confirm that you want to stop this program from running.

  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each program you want to stop to run.

If you go in Mode safe mode and logon as a user, always make the properties page of the system at startup?
1. reboot your computer and start pressing F8 on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured to start to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when you see the boot menu.
2. when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, select Safe Mode, and then press ENTER.
3 log on to Windows by using the administrator account or any account of a user with administrator privileges.

NOTE: In Safe Mode, your display system and the Bureau will look and perform differently than in Normal Mode. This is only temporary. To return the system to Normal mode, we can simply restart the computer.

Another suggestion would be to see if you have a System Restore point before the problem started to occur.
Go to the following Knowledge Base article and follow the steps to see if you can get to an earlier point in time.

  • change the name of the computer in homegroup

    Original title: Homegroup computer name Question

    I have a little trouble understand Windows 8 Homegroup computer names.  My name is Lance and I want the name of my computer to be 'Media-3 '.  I tried different combinations of account names and the name of the computer, but whenever I look under the box of homegroup in Windows Explorer, my computer is presented as 'summi_000 '.  It is a variant of the email address, I used initially to set up this new computer Windows 8 until I knew exactly what I was doing (don't know if I know even now).

    I can't quite understand how to get this 'summi_000' to disappear and put the right either user name or computer name.

  • I would like to get the name of the computer user. Is this possible?

    Hi guys!

    Is there a function I can to get the user name of the computer that is using the / open my form?


    I would like to surprise the user, praising your name on the form

    Thank you!

    Hi Rafael,.

    It can be done, but you have to work within the security of Adobe strategy. It is considered a security risk for the form to use the script to collect information about the user of the computer. You will need to use a function of trust, which is in a JavaScript (.js file) file. This .js file is then placed in a specific folder on each computer using the form.

    See a thread and examples here: Re: Dungeon user to print and see some pages

    This can be very difficult to maintain, and you will encounter problems if the form is activated in Acrobat Reader.

    Overall, it is possible, but it is a pain and if you form are intended to be used on several computers (outside), then it is probably not worth the effort.

    Good luck

  • How can I connect my Mac to a network server? As in windows yo go to my computer / connection to a network drive, and then you select a letter and write the name of the server that you want to be logged

    I'm trying to adapt Windows to my new MacBook Pro with OS El Capitan.

    I work remotely for a company and I want to connect my Mac to the server of the company.

    My question is how to connect a MAc to a network drive with the permanently available connection.  For example, in my old HP I went to my computer / connection to a network drive. I've selected a letter and note the name of the server that I wanted to be connected to. The connection was then shown with my other drive hard 'sections '; I want to say C:, D: (for recovery), e: (for tools) and then connecting to the external server has been shown with the selected letter.

    There is no "letter" under OS X. It's a hangover very old of BACK, devices of mapping and volumes labeled mailbox.

    If you are connected to your corporate network, you should see the available network volumes listed in the Finder, in ' my computer > network ", or with the command K to connect to a server.

    You can create an alias for the volume and put it in the Dock, or leave on the desktop or put it somewhere else, and the next time you want to connect to this subject, simply double-click on it. You can also add the server address to your "favourites" in the connect to Server dialog box.

  • How can I change the name of my computer that I assigned to Setup?

    I just did a system recovery and have an external hard drive to backup and realized I should have renamed the computer reconfigured slightly differently so I have separated on the external hard drive backups.

    As it sounds, as there is no involvement of the field...

    Use the computer name tab in the System Properties dialog box. To find this tab, use one of the following methods:

    • Click Start, right-click my computer, and then click Properties.
    • Click Start, click run, type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
    • Click Start, click Control Panel, double-click performance and Maintenanceand then click System.

    Change the name of the computer

    To change a computer name, follow these steps (in light of the foregoing...):

    1. Click the computer name tab, and then click change.
    2. Type the new computer name in the computer name dialog box.
    3. Click OK three times, and then restart the computer.
  • Change the username on the start to something else, as the name of the computer

    I'm on a domain.
    I would like to change the username on the start menu for anything other than the username.
    User ID would be ok. Name of the computer would be even better.
    I see a number of things that could go instead.
    How is that possible?

    It would be nice to be able to customize the name of this poster in the startmenu.
    Too bad Microsoft don't think that in time there is.

    Windows XP puts the name of the person currently logged on to the system at the top of the start menu. The reason for this is to make it easier to say that the user is connected to a Windows XP system that is configured with multiple users. However, if you are the only person using the computer, you don't really need to have your name at the top of the menu start. You can remove it by using the Group Policy console (Microsoft Management Console snap-in used to edit Group Policy objects).

    1. Start the Group Policy console (Gpedit.msc).
    2. Go to User Configuration | Administrative templates | Start menu and taskbar.
    3. Find and double-click the setting remove the username from the Start Menu.
    4. Select the active option button, and then click OK.
    5. Exit the Group Policy console. The change will take place immediately.

    Note: This tip only applies to Windows XP Professional.

  • Change the name of the computer to apply to folders - Vista

    My computer was a friend, but when they gave it to me I tried to change the name of the computer to mine but that you are unable to apply to the user folders (I hope that makes sense!) - the user account name is Elise, but the address (?-equivalent of when you type a URL in a Web browser...) said again: C:\Users\kerry\Documents

    Is it possible to apply the name change for the name 'Kerry' is replaced by 'Elise' in the address?

    The only way to change this folder name is to go to the control panel to the title of the user accounts and create a new user account for the name you want.  Later, you can delete the old profile.

    If the computers aren't on the same network and and/or that the network is not along the NetBIOS name - then you will need to use the IP address or some form of dynamic DNS.  The alternative would be to change your HOSTS file so that you can give the name you want and not have to remember the IP address that is now associated with that name in the HOSTS file.

  • What exactly happens when you change the name of the computer, and it asks you to restart?

    What exactly happens when you change the name of the computer, and it asks you to restart - relating to the registration and identification of network?  Specifically when a computer isn't yet in one area but is still in a working group.  Y at - it show any PC by informing other computers it's name has changed?

    Computers into working groups are actively seeking each other, so if you rename a computer, it will not be shown anything. The restart is to erase the name of origin since the system cache, he will think that it's always the old name until the reboot takes place. Work computers is simply 'shake hands' with each other whenever they need to communicate.

    Computers that are part of a domain are created a 'computer' account that is assigned a random password that changes every 30 days by default automatically. These computer accounts work almost identical to an Active Directory user account, which means that they are not proactive they simply cached credentials with their permissions to provide if / when requested by heritage in the environment.
    Users and computers Active Directory accounts are stored in the NTDS. SAID the database, the backbone of an AD environment. When a computer name changes in one area, it takes the PC restarted simply for the PC. The change of name in Active Directory will replicate throughout the environment based on the settings of replication of this environment.
    I'm too simplify all this, but the general concept is there.

    Using Windows XP - how to change the name on the computer.  Am not able to remove/change the word "Margie":

    Concerning

    "MARGIE" in "C:\Documents and Settings\MARGIE\... is not a"computer name", it's a user"Profile name".  Once a user is created and its associated profile, this name cannot be changed directly.  The only practical way to change that is to create a new user, copy the data from the user profile of MARGIE in this new user and then delete the profile of MARGIE.  To do this, pretend that the "MARGIE" user profile is corrupted and then follow the instructions in the following article:

  • my laptop will not find my wireless network when I'm trying to relog. I then reboot the computer to make it work

    I can be on my laptop and the internet works fine, but if I close my laptop and come back, sometimes it will not open a session. When I try to connect to a wireless network, it will appear not all networks at all and I live in a condo and I usually pick mine as well as a dozen other choices. The laptop won't restart when I try to shut down or restart, it just goes in the part of the judgment of the process, but goes no further.

    Assuming that the signal is strong, and that there is no noise in the electrical environment (http://www.ezlan.net/wbars.html ).

    Uncheck the box to the NIC of energy economy (I.e., do not leave the card save energy).

    There may be some variations on where is the energy saving setting.

    Here are a few examples, YMMV, look around your systems.
