Frequently asked questions

Why do I have to log on to Windows® XP since Visual Liturgy 4.0 for Common Worship was installed?

When Visual Liturgy 4.0 for Common Worship is installed onto your machine, it checks to see whether you have Microsoft® .NET installed. If it isn't already installed on your machine, the installation routine adds it to your machine. Microsoft® .NET is a crucial system component that allows VL4 to run.

What Microsoft® .NET does is normal and quite harmless and is needed initially to make VL work. As it is installing, it has to create an extra user - ASP.NET Machine Account. The addition of the extra 'user' resets your Microsoft® Windows log-on, forcing you to log in the next time you use your machine.

You can restore your machine to the way it was reasonably simply so that the log-on screen does not appear.

  1. Click on START and then RUN
  2. In the command line, type in the following command:
    control userpasswords2
  3. When the user accounts window opens, uncheck the box which states 'Users must enter a username and password to use this computer' and click APPLY.
  4. You will be requested for the username and password of the account you wish to automatically logon on following reboots of your system.
  5. If at a later stage you want a password back on your system, follow the same steps but recheck the box.
  6. In order to open user accounts you must be using an Administrator level account
