I recently uninstalled a number of programs
that we no longer used, or wanted to replace.
One of the unexpected results is that my Win98 laptop no longer goes to the MS network login prompt on startup but goes directly to the default user environment, as if someone cancelled the login prompt. How can I restore the login prompt ? I have already uninstalled and re-installed the network layers and clients but the problem persists.

Thanks in advance for any helpful tips.

Use TweakUI 2000. You can get it from www.nonags.com That has a Clear Last User setting under the Paranioa tab. This should get that login back everytime you start your computer. Normally, Win98 will use the last person logged in as default when that person supplies no password when originally prompted.

Run regedit and do a search for autologon. Set the value to 01. This should solve your problem
