Posted December 3, 200519 yr Say I log in to administrator on my dads pc, but I don't want him to know I've been on there. How would I fix the pc so that the next time he reboots. It didnt already have "administrator" autofilled into the username field on the log in screen? If this question isn't specific enough just say so.

Go to Computer Configuration / Windows Settings / Security Settings / Local Policies / Security Options 3. Scroll down to Interactive logon: Do not display last user name 4. Set it to Enable tada !
