Hi
I know I have switched this off before, but I forget how to do it. How do you get XP to switch straight back to your desktop from the ScreenSaver without going to the user profle screen first?

Thanks
Rich

If you mean the Locekd workstation screen then just go into the screen saver properties tab and unclick the password protected box.

On the Screen Saver tab under Display Properties there is a checkbox to "Show Welcome screen". Simply uncheck it!
