I have a windows xp embeddded system which I added a user to. Originally the system automatically booted up and logged in (presumably as the Administrator).<br />
<br />
Anyway I niaively deleted the user account thinking it would resort back to the original auto boot.<br />
<br />
WRONG!<br />
<br />
When I boot the machine now, it has the deleted Username and does not allow any entry on the keyboard and is effectively locked.<br />
<br />
My backup image is also corrupted!<br />
<br />
How do I recover from this to allow to system to autoboot as it did previously?<br />
<br />
<br />
Kind Regards<br />
David

XP Embedded security recovery

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
