• Missing user account from the logon screen icons

  I tried and tried to understand it, but not impossible.

  My 5 year old son and his friend were playing a game on the computer for a little while and when I tried to change username on my account (Administrator) the only icons that have been confirmed on the login screen of my son and an icon of the Virgin 'another user' that requires a user name and password.

  Previously, we had four icons of the user account on the opening screen of session with each of our own photos. Our accounts are always listed in the computer but I can't understand how to add icons to the logon screen.

  I can still get into the computer through my son's account.

• I want to remove the other icon of the user from the logon screen.

  For security reasons, I would delete the other user option from the logon screen.  I am running Windows SteadyState 2.5 with the Welcome screen option.

  Any help much appreciated.

  When you use steadysate, the other user option will be present on the logon screen.

  Uninstalling steadystate will solve the problem.

Once, I installed Windows 8.1 a pack of https://skinpacks.com/ skin and I am not satisfied with the output, so I decided to uninstall it immediately.

• Start-up delays between the Windows startup and the logon screen

  I have two PC's that have essentially the same Intel motherboard, but with different form factors. The smallest has a less powerful CPU and a slower hard drive. Still more has a significant delay between displaying the logon screen and Windows startup. Between the two, the display shows a cursor that cannot be moved through the mouse for 30 seconds or more, while on the smaller than the slider shows only for about a second.

  I realize, the problem could be many things, but I'm guessing that material or a device sound driver. I watched the event logs, but I couldn't see anything strange. I expected to see a "CPU does not ' or"USB 3.0 controller has a hardware problem"kind of thing. I ran Intel IPDT but he did not find a problem. Device Manager displays all of the problems. There is no graphics card on a system. I unplugged the USB cable to the printer, but that did nothing. No games are installed on a system. Nothing seems to be overheating. There is no network drive. All drives are SATA and BIOS is set to AHCI.

  Someone at - it the words of wisdom about what should I look for in the event logs?

  If it were my system:

  1. I'd be more suspicious of malware, run ADWcleaner and have a good antivirus program
  2. I would use the manufacturer of my disk drive hard testing program to ensure that it is not a failure
  3. I would like to be sure that none of the drives are more than 75% in use
  4. I would check my memory using the auditor memory Windows 7
  5. I would like to install and run Autoruns to check what is in the startup process
  6. AND, above all, focus on the applications installed.  Some of them are notorious resource hogs who insist on running at startup.
  7. Remove Programs/applications from starting unless I really need to start

  Common unbelievers that cause slow-start ups:

  • Garmin Express
  • Skype
  • uTorrent
  • FrostWire
  • Trusteer

• How to remove a user name from the logon screen?

  Hi all

  I have an annoying problem and do not know how to solve.

  What happened is that used to use my laptop for the log-in het Skype account my ex-girlfriend. But in the login screen continues to display his name as mine always does.

  I used different registry cleaners and uninstalled and reinstalled Skype and had no results.

  How can I remove users on the logon screen?

  Thanks for all the help.

  Basically, you need to remove the folder of the account. I think the second part of this FAQ Help: https://support.skype.com/en-gb/faq/FA142/How-do-I-delete-my-profile-or-Skype-Name

• Microsoft Windows Vista Home Permium freezes to the logon screen or gets stuck

  Microsoft Windows Vista Home Permium freezes to the logon screen or crashes on the black screen with Copyright Microsoft Corporation with the load with six green bars moving through bar. It will start in safe mode. I ran the auto repair (recommended) when starting after being forced to stop. After it says its full it restarts and remains stuck on the black screen with Copyright Microsoft Corporation with the load bar with six green bars that cross so I force disable it again.

  I had no problem with this computer, he got in last seven. It was working fine yesterday and then the without wire came out, so I restarted the computer to find the connection again as I had done several times before. That's when it froze on the opening of session and password screen. Who started this cycle of freezing or stuck on the black screen with the loading bar permanently running.

  UPDATE:
  Start safe mode then made the instructions on the clean boot. Not checked, all iteams he says and rebooted and it worked. So I went to the next step to select only half to refine the list. Restarted and when at the loading screen for a little over 30 sec - 1 min (which is more short than the time it took to work initially after the first stage of the boot with all unchecked), but it goes to a completely black screen that has not happened before. So now, a little lost, or do I have to keep trying to refine?

  Hi Greg,.

  It will not harm the computer to run it in a boot environment.  Some programs do not work properly because they were probably responsible for their own services and rely on them to work.  You have disabled all non-Microsoft services, and things like printers and software can be difficult.

  Click Start, then options type power and press ENTER.  Let us make sure that the system is not configured to sleep.  Go ahead and put the power plan to High Performance, then click on change Plan settings below.  There will be a framework for "put the computer to sleep".  The value than ever.

  If it continues to turn black in clean boot mode, you may have a hardware problem.  One thing you could do if it's a desktop system and really need to use it now, it is the lid of the machine and aim a fan in the box.  This will help if it is overheating.

  Please complete the steps to diagnose the problem with the boot when you have the chance.

• My control panel shows only one user, but when I start it shows two users on the logon screen. and I know no other password

  My control panel shows only one user, but when I start it shows two users on the logon screen. My user is an administrator. But I do not know password of another user. I am currently using as an administrator. But I also want other user password. Answer please

  Your machine has only two accounts: admin and guest. I saw a few messages before which the poster makes an additional account on the log on screen that does not exist. Since there is not, it cannot be used.

  Also note that you play a game at high risk, having only one administrator account. This forum deals daily with posters including one and only the admin account went bad for one reason or other. Something about it now while you can: create, test, and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare emergency House key.

• Reference Dell pc with xp family. Restart to the logon screen

  Reference Dell pc with xp family. Restart to the logon screen. starts ok in safe mode. run msconfig and do that no change then do restart ok everything ok until the cold start, then hand it to restart?

  Peek into the registry to find clues.

  Disable the automatic restart in case of system error and see if you can capture a message of error checking bug (BSOD) with useful information.  Automatic restart in the event of system failure can be disabled in the F8 advanced boot menu, or you can turn it off in system properties.

  1. right click on my computer and select Properties.
  2 - Click on the Advanced tab, and then click on the Start button and recovery settings.
  3 clear the automatically restart box and OK your way out system properties.

  Start the computer in a Clean Boot State, if the computer starts successfully in a clean boot state, then one of your user programs most likely problems, look in the case of journal of indexes.

• screen saver on the logon screen

  Hi all

  in the settings I disabled completely safe screen. But now I've started my mac, waited half an hour and then tried to open a session. And... guess it... the logon screen showed a screen saver.

  So two questions:

  -where can I turn on / turn off screen saver for the logon screen?

  -where can I set up the screen saver for the logon screen?

  Greetings from the Germany

  Chris

  OK, a third party, but please Don t laugh:

  s ' is he or safer screen saver?

  In English, it means "Screen Saver".

  To set the screensaver used at the login screen, you can use the following command, which in this example is the name of the computer aka things. 'Message' screen saver.

  / usr/bin/defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver loginWindowModulePath '/System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources/Computer Name.saver '.

  Hey Missy,

  In addition, you can go through this post.

  The main reasons for this problem is a corruption in the registry key that contains the value of the files that are executed during the connection to windows. This registry key can get is replaced by an incorrect value, or it might get corrupted due to a virus / trojan activity.

  See if you can solve this problem by running SFC (System File Checker) scan in safe mode.

• Why does the login screen Windows continue reappear on my monitor?

  I use Windows 7 Pro.  Until a few months ago, I couldn't leave my desktop PC on overnight.  As soon as I sat down and moved the mouse or tap a key on the keyboard, my screen saver would disappear and I could go right to work.  It was great!  Several months ago, a problem started that I describe.

  Now, when I walk away from my PC for a few hours and return, I see the Windows login screen.   It is not all the time, but it produces most of the time.   My first step in tackling the problem was to check the settings of the screen Setter.  The bomber of the screen ("ribbons") is supposed to go after 12 minutes of inactivity.

  There is a box to the right of this setting that says 'On Resume, display the login screen'.  This box is averified.

  Then I adjusted to High Performance power settings.  PC display is Never set for when to turn off the screen and also never to when putting the computer to sleep.   I then changed the advanced power settings to try to remedy the problem.  I made sure the following settings are the following:

  High Performance requires no password on wake up.

  Turn off the hard drive at the end of 800 minutes

  The sleep settings:

  Sleep after = never

  Allow hybrid sleep = Off

  Hibernate after = never

  Enable timers wake = Disable

  Turn off the display = never

  Power button: Sleep button Action = Nothing

  For security reasons, I usually use my PC as a standard user.  But the login screen Windows guard reappear after I leave my PC for a while if I run as a limited user or administrator of the master.

  Can you give me some additional ideas on what I can do to remove the login screen Windows reappear after I leave my PC?

  Hello

  Thank you for your reply with the requested information, sorry for the delay in response.

  I suggest you follow the steps below:
  1. on your desktop "Windows + R" screen press button together press
  The Board of Directors.
  2. in the command box type run 'control userpasswords2' click OK.
  3. uncheck the box for "users must enter a user name and password
  This computer '.
  4. change the screen saver 'Ribbons' to something else for example
  'Bubbles '.
  5 restart the computer.
  Now, check if the problem reappears.
  Hope this helps, please answer with the results for assistance.
