When i turn off my computer and turn it back on, it
automatically logs on to my account which of course is
Administrator . I want the log-on not to be automatic. I
cant stop unauthorized users from using my comp if this
problems continues. On most other computers, the logon
screen will appear first during start up and requires a
password to move to windows. My computer moves straight
to windows instead of requiring a password to logon.
Please help me, I have people who want to access my
without my permission. I would appreciate your most
educated response.
