Installed SP3 last night, all went well. I do however notice I now must log on by clicking my name, did nto have to do that before. How can I fix this? I looked in User Accounts, didn’t see anything there. Thanks.

I have installed SP3 on more than few dozen PCs and none have encountered anything like that. You probably also installed Net Framework that changed the logon. In any case see the following link for instruction to turn back on automatic logon.
