Alienware Alpha automatically logs into "AlphaUI" account on startup, can't figure out how to change

Looking for a way to stop this

In Desktop Mode, on a keyboard press Win+R, type netplwiz and press OK. In the panel that comes up, check the box that says "Users must enter a username and password to use this computer." Done.

By default the console will always boot in AlphaUI at least you uninstall it but then it will go directly to windows.

Change your password to the console account.

I'm looking for a way to reverse this to save me time and keys.

I did find a way to do this that involves simply making a few changes in the registry, but it was a while ago now and I don't remember exactly how. But it is certainly doable.

I'll try and mess with it later. See what I can come up with.

I mean its no big deal if I'm not wanting to boot up steam right away, buy I'm missing the feature. Especially when my housemate wants to play and I don't want her to have any passwords. (I'm mean.)
