Domain User Names Listed on Login Screen? by
CyberiaTech
Is there a way to make domain usernames "sticky" so that they will always
appear on the login screen?
This is intended for use in a small office with few users. I just thought
it would be easier to click on the name, type password, and you're in.
The best I can do so far is login as one user, go to switch user, and log in
as another. Then, both domain users are listed on the login screen.

doesn't work in Vista when used in a HTA:

Is this right? New activation required for each Vista upgrade by
Spirefm
I downloaded 5536 from the Microsoft site, then 5600 and am now downloading
5278. Each upgrade has needed to be activated (which I've done vocally over
the phone without trouble). I just thought that, having activated it once,
upgrades would not require re-activation.

Automatic Log-out / Lock by
Jay
Yes, oh GOD, PLEASE, SOMEONE! What's the whole damn idea!? Vista, the best
system my eyes have ever seen, decided to lock my computer every time I leave
it. This even means that my wireless connection gets severed every time the
system does that, which seriously p****s me off, since I have a habit of
leaving the machine to do its downloading for me.
There is absolutely NO option anywhere to...

Can not create Windows Logon Credential by
ronaldpj
Hi,
I am using RC1 in a domain environment, but I can't seem to create a Windows
Logon Credential. Neither can I select "remember my password" when I connect
to a network resource. Is it possible to set something like this through a
policy, or is something else wrong.
regards,

Lost Administrator Password by
Rodrigo
"Jimmy Brush" wrote:
You are using Windows Vista, correct?
You should be able to re-boot in safe mode and log in as the built-in
administrator. This account generally doesn't have a password and is only
available in safe mode.
From there, you can get to User Accounts and change passwords.
