Tom,
Is your computer part of a domain? Or set to be part of a domain?

I then unchecked the welcome screen and fast user switching and rebooted. Of course, it opened to the locked window and needed my password. When I went to re-check the welcome screen, a window opened saying I had to disable "offline file settings", which I have never seen nor heard of before. When I did this I was able to check the welcome screen and fast user switching as they were before. However, the computer still opens to the password protected-locked screen when resuming from the screen saver and not the welcome screen. > > Tom > > ----- Doug Knox MS-MVP wrote: ----- > > You're in about the best place for help, there is, Tom. > > Have you tried disabling the Welcome Screen and Fast User Switching, then reenabling them? > > Also, go to Start, Run and enter SERVICES.MSC > > Check the Fast User Switching service and the Terminal Services service.
