I have problem with Windows which isn't fatal, but really annoying...

Typically, my computer starts up without a me needing to add more input. It runs through BIOS, the splash screen, and logging in autonomously, and I can get other work done (or eat) while it is booting and loading up. This is accomplished (or so I thought) because I only have one account. Since I have only one account, it makes sense that the computer won't need me to choose an account to login to. However, yesterday, I go to turn on my computer, and continue about as I usually do. Unfortunately, when I get back, expecting the computer in a ready state, I find it on the Welcome screen, waiting for me to select which user I want. Naturally, this is annoying, because it now requires me to wait with the computer until it completes BIOS and splash so I can select the one user that I have and tell it that that user is the one I want.

Is there anyway to remedy this problem without anything drastic, such as system restore or reinstallation of Windows?

Hm, both of my computers require me to choose a user (each computer only has one user like your situation). Let me check...

Here, go into user accounts and choose "Change the way users log on and off" then deselect "Show Welcome Screen."

Doesn't work. It asks me to login iwth a password, which takes even longer.
