Hi!
I've been reading some of the tutorials on this site as to how I can keep my laptop from automatically locking itself when ever my screen saver goes up.
Basically, what I'm trying to make my computer do is simple. My brother has an HP laptop (I have a Toshiba), when he opens up his laptop or restarts it from sleep mode or what ever, it automatically loads onto the desktop. For me, it loads up the choose-a-user page, in which there is only one user, and it claims it is "locked".
I have tried a few different things so far, I went to my screen saver settings, unchecked "On resume, display logon screen", then I tried going to the netplwiz program from the start menu, disabled "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer.", hit apply, and since I don't have a password on my computer, and I hit OK. Vista even made me log off and back in to change this setting. And it is still locking the computer every time it goes into sleep or the laptop is closed.
It is kind of frustrating, especially when I'm trying to do something in a hurry and Vista takes it's sweet time reloading the desktop every single time.
If anyone knows what to do I'd appreciate it.
