Guest Kelly Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 Re: Welcome Screen Change the Login Window to W2K Style This setting controls which type of logon screen is shown, either the classic Windows NT/2000 format or the Windows XP welcome screen. GUI: Control Panel/User Accounts - Change the way users log on or - uncheck the Welcome Screen. Via the registry: Start/Run/Regedit Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\Winlogon] Value Name: LogonType Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value) Value Data: (0 = Classic Mode, 1 = Welcome Screen) Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, called 'LogonType' and edit the value according to the settings below. Exit your registry, you may need to restart or log out of Windows for the change to take effect. Note: Using the classic logon method will also disable the use of fast user switching, where applications remain active in other users sessions. -- All the Best, Kelly (MS-MVP/DTS&XP) Taskbar Repair Tool Plus! http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/taskbarplus!.htm SupportSpace http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/supportspace.htm "Don" <help@anytime.com> wrote in message news:O7RTzuyyIHA.5472@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Guess i'll have to to suffer with "Welcome" (:~0) > > "Kelly" <kelly@kelly.com> wrote in message > news:82C09595-F0EB-4F7D-AC2B-9BFD07FD789C@microsoft.com... >> Can't do both, Don. >> >> Which is it you want?
