Three or four years ago, this group answered my question about how to remove
the requirement to log in to my machine. Unfortunately, having rebuilt my
machine yesterday (yay - running so much faster now!), I can't remember how
to do this.

I've switched it away from selecting the user account on the initial screen;
now it just brings up my user ID and asks me to log in when I boot up. I
KNOW it's possible to get rid of this! Obviously, I'm the admin and also
the only user.

Thank you!

Thank you. PERFECT.

Interestingly enough, I'm almost certain this wasn't the solution
way-back-then, so I'm glad I asked again!
