Hi.
I have been using unattended method for couple years, and being I live alone, I have always set mine up to auto logon as admin. Well now, I'm going to be having a 14yr old female, that has trashed every MS O/S she has been able to get onto, Moving in with me (Along with her mother). I can't afford to have her trashing my systems, so I need to go back to manual logon, and preferably with no guest accounts. But, I cannot remember the regedits to do so. I'm even thinking of installing a key-lock switch in the green ATX power on wire.

Can someone guide me to the regedits I need? All I see is how to auto logon.

Remove DefaultUsername / DefaultPassword / AutoAdminLogon from HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Winlogon.

Thank you Sonic, Saved my backside. She's been here one day and already tried to get on. This girl is the virus / spyware princess. Now at least I have peace of mind.
