| Changing user windows starts up to by default Hi all, I have an administrator account and another account on my Vista PC. How do I make the other account be the one that vista automatically boots to? This has really been bothering me. Any suggestions? THe other account also has admin privileges. THanks, Adam |

| Well what I want to do is have my admin account not be logged in to automatically... those instructions say that I can not disable that account. Additionally, for some reason I can not even get to 'Computer Management > System Tools > Local Users and Groups > Users ' The Local Users and Groups does not show up. I have two accounts 'Administrator', and 'Adam'. Both have admin privileges. 'Administrator' automatically logs on when I boot up, I want it to automatically boot up to 'Adam'. |

| Try right-clicking on Computer > Manage > local Users and Groups > Users > Administrator > Check "Account is disabled."
