This is an easy :think: question about windows 7 :(

I bought a used win 7 pro laptop lenovo think pad.

I set up windows chose no password BUT when i resume from sleep or start up the first screen would need a password IF I HAD CHOSEN password protect

Instead i have to click on a small square to open desktop....where is the setting to start directly to desktop,??????

Its soooo easy when i found the setting last time i wondered why i had not found the setting myself....since then i had a crash which wiped out all my scrapebook notes

I KNOW ITS NOT A WIN 8 Question but i just cannot find anywhere else where someone might remember how to do it and it is sooo simple
 
Thanks thats great Im sure your link is what i need BUT the page opens in English then before i can read it changes to FRENCH?????

Is that to stop anyone reading it???

Cant see change back to English??????

FOUND IT English was the first on the list:shock: nothing under "E":sarc:
 
well im on my asus UX 21a which is quite old now,i might have gone to French im a bit rushed hear
So i made all the steps, un ticked the box went to advanced un checked box there applied restart just in case NO CHANGE??

Another odd thing i bought the Think pad T420 160Gb SSD 8Gb RAM from a German leasing company and its scratched but otherwise perfect i could set up win 7 pro as if just out of the box thats why its in English BUT the German keyboard QWERT"Z" has the Y key there??? and types Z which would be the same keyboard as this asus i bought in Switzerland that is a Swiss German one

Over time ive got used to it especially as Switzerland used to have a 30% discount over European prices ..that was before large companies bought the discounters
So i changed the keyboard to Swiss German BUT its still German German configuration with the Z/Y @ è key all different
What have i done wrong??? I used to be able to change the setting
 
OK thanks for posting the link would have removed the login screen at once ;) IF i had made restart:huh:

The keyboard turned out to be Swedish :eek: so the Swiss German & German were installing just wrong.Now i have it set Swiss German and dont look at the keys except when i forget where a key should be

Thanks great help without your help i would have still been looking
