How do you turn off automatic log-off in Windows XP Home SP2?

[Guest Mango]

I can't remember where this option is in the Control Panel. Maybe it's not in

Control Panel...

What do you mean 'automatic logoff' ??? Can you explain? Sleep mode?

Migration?

Do you mean AutologON? If so and if you have Tweak UI installed, look at

Logon. If no Tweak UI, go to run on the Start Menu and type: control

userpasswords2 and click OK

Hey guys, I'm talking about when you leave the computer idle for a few

minutes and it logs me off. I guess it's going into sleep mode, but I'm not

sure. It definitely logs off though, because I have to re-enter my password

to log back on. In other words, when I move the mouse and the screen comes

back up, it's the log in screen instead of my desktop.

Control Panel -> Display -> Screen Saver page. Uncheck On resume, password

protect (or show Welcome screen).

Control Panel -> Power Options -> Advanced page. Uncheck Prompt for password on

resuming from standby.

 

Good luck
