Logoff User Question

[Guest JD]

We use only the default "Owner" logon, with no password. I am curious as to

what would happen if one of us carelessly clicked the "Logoff" button when

shutting down. I'm afraid to try it to find out.

Nothing at all. It will just bring you to the welcome screen.

When we turn the computer on it goes directly to the Desktop. We never see

the Welcome Screen.

That's not unusual... and it's not indicative of a problem. If there

is only one user account (other than "Administrator") and that user

doesn't have a password, I believe that it's the default

configuration.

I do understand that. The original question was what would happen if someone

carelessly clicked "Logoff" when intending to shut down. The responder said

it would just go to the Welcome Screen.

Yup. And you'd see whatever picture and name that user has in the

system and would have to click it to log back in.
