One of the most annoying features of Windows Vista is the login screen that displays all user accounts on the system. You have to click on one of the accounts and enter the password from that user to be able to login and use Windows Vista.
I don’t think it makes that much sense to display this information if you login with the same user most of the time. Security should also be no concern because it is not that complicated to access the data even though you do not know the password of that specific user.
The guy running One Tip a Day found a way to automatically login into a user account during Vista startup. All you need to do is perform the following operations to enable auto login.

• 1. Type in ‘netplwiz’ in the search box after clicking on the start button or press Windows + R and type it. This opens the Advanced User Accounts Menu.
  1. Highlight the account in the users tab that you want to automatically login with and uncheck ‘must enter a username and password to use this computer’
  1. Click on apply afterwards and enter the password from that account twice
  1. Click ok and restart Windows vista to see if the changes made had the desired effect.

If everything went well Windows Vista will automatically login into the selected account during startup.
