I did a fresh install of Win XP Pro 3 days ago as Administrator only with no
users and no passwords. No problems. I could boot up and windows would
load fully with no log on screen. Just the way I wanted. Boot up - leave
the room - come back and it is up and running.

Without doing anything except full updates, suddenly when Windows boots I
have a log in screen to Ron Patterson (me) user account. If I Start\Run
"control userpasswords2"
to boot to admin acct. - when it boots up only @ 30% of my programs are
installed and none of my previous settings.

How does Windows XP take it upon itself to suddenly create a user account?

How can I get it to boot up to my settings like it used to without a log on
screen?

I have Googled and read most everything on this and can't find an easy
solution.

ps - tweakit did not help.

My suggestion would be to go to control panel--user accounts and set up
there.

The built-in Administrator account is *not* intended to be used the way
you describe.

If you didn't recently create a new profile called "Ron Patterson,"
surely you did this while you were setting up Windows XP. Windows XP
doesn't do this on its own!

If you want to live life on the edge, you can just use the Ron Patterson
profile, making it administrative-level and with no password if you
wish, and not requiring logon so after booting up, your desktop loads
just as you describe.

Au contraire - after installation it ran for 4 days with no user
ccount - just like I prefer. Out of no where the user account appeared
along with some "ASP." account .

I suspect a Windows update did this.

asp is windows support and tech support files.
and even though you might not have a log on it defaults to the admin user
account.
unless you create a different one:)
