how do turn off the logoff screen in vista? thanks black_13 > how do turn off the logoff screen in vista? > thanks > black_13 Do you mean that you want to automatically log onto your user account, effectively going directly to the Desktop? If that's what you want to know, the instructions at this link work for both XP and Vista: Configure Windows to Automatically Login (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm If you wanted something different, post back with more details so we don't have to guess. Malke  SignatureMS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com Don't Panic! "CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2", doesn't work for me under Vista SP1 (I'm sure it did before SP1!!, maybe it was a dream!) Marc Go start > Type netplwiz and hit enter. Confirm the user account message. Select your username from the list, then UNCHECK the box at the top that says "users must enter username and password" Press OK. If prompted to, enter your username and password. You will not be asked to loggon, but because you have a password you can still lock your screen, and log off (although a reboot will log you back on) HTH Marc > how do turn off the logoff screen in vista? > thanks > black_13 black_13;716380 Wrote: > how do turn off the logoff screen in vista? > thanks > black_13 Hi Black_13, This tutorial will show you how to turn off this screen so that you can have Vista logon to a user account of your choice at startup. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/66966-logon-automatically.html Hope this helps, Shawn SignatureBrink *There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.* '*VISTA FORUMS*' (http://www.vistax64.com) *Please post feedback to help others.* > black_13;716380 Wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > '*VISTA FORUMS*' (http://www.vistax64.com) > *Please post feedback to help others.* thanks for the response (all) sorry i should have been more specific. what i was hoping to hide/disable is turn off the screen that would come after running the the command shutdown -r -t 0 or shutdown -r -t 0. this screens has the following and animated cursor with the words "Logging off" then "Shuting down" with "Windows Vista Ultimate" at the bottom of the screen. thanks black_13 black_13;716611 Wrote: > thanks for the response (all) > sorry i should have been more specific.

I hope this can help for now until you find a way to do what you want. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70567-shutdown.html Shawn SignatureBrink *There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.* '*VISTA FORUMS*' (http://www.vistax64.com) *Please post feedback to help others.* |
