Switching between user accounts
I have Windows XP Pro. Added a new user account, was working fine, could switch back and forth to both users. The next day turned on computer, now the original account is not showing up on welcome page to sign in. When I go to user accounts it is still there. How do I get it back on the welcome screen?1 person needs an answerI do too

Hi dfsawyer, · Was there any change made after creating the new account?· Are both these accounts administrator accounts? The most likely cause for this could be that the user account might have gone corrupt. Since the old account is still available and the data is secure, I would suggest you to create a new user account and transfer data from the corrupted account to the new one. Refer to this article and follow steps provided to do the same.
