Ok. So I have my desktop password protected and I usually turn on the welcome screen whenever I leave the house. I live with some nosey people and I don't want them using my computer. I noticed though that my computer was being logged on to even though it was password protected. SO when trying to figure out why, I realized that if you restart the computer, my desktop loads up automatically! How can I get the computer password protected so that the welcome screen comes on when the computer is restarted? -Gabrielle -- gabrielle |
