    Hi! I've set Windows to prompt for a username and password on startup. I ran 'netplwiz', ticked the "Users must enter a username and password to log in" box, and set a password successfully. But my laptop still boots straight into Windows without prompting for the password.

    I've encountered this problem on more than one computer. Am I missing a step somewhere?
