[QUOTE="yarr, post: 812051, member: 73433"] How to I remove administrator account from the login screen? I think I may have went about changing to standard incorrectly. I used ”net user administrator /active:yes" then "net user administrator 'password' " but now when I use "net user administrator /active:no" to hide the account from login screen the admin prompt that usually has a box to enter a password no longer shows an entry box. I swear I've been able to do this in the passed so I think maybe I scuffed something up along the way. What are your thoughts? Did I make a mistake in one of the commands? I'm sure there has to be a simpler way to do this as well but if there is no way to I suppose I don't mind just re-enabling and actually switching to the administrator user account every now and then [/QUOTE]
