WinXP Pro Login/Logoff screen

Hey all, this isn;t VB related but I've searched all over the net and can't find an answer to this.

In WinXP you have a welcome screen that has users with their logos. You click on a logo and it takes you to Windows with your profile.

When you log off you have a window popup that has 3 buttons. Hibernate/Restart/Shutdown.

Well, I've done something and now I have the old style log in and log off windows. When I go to log off for instance I have a little window popup with a drop down that has Shutdown/Restart/etc.. in it.


Anyone know how I change it back to the regualr XP style login/logoff?


Thanks!:D

It seems to me you upgraded from WinXP Home to WinXP Pro, in which case there's really no point in trying to get them back.

No, I had Pro to start with. This just the "Style" of the way it works/looks. But it still basically does the same thing.

Just press Ctrl + Alt + del twice at the login screen:)

Im not sure if this is the answer but it might help:

Start > Run

Type: Control Userpasswords2 and press return

on the users tab I think the top tickbox might be ticked.

Just a thought

XP Sucks:lol:

Goto Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts and click Change the way users logon and off. Make sure it says use the welcome screen.

BTW, both checkboxes are checked by default.
