Default Lan Network - Important tips

Hello Everybody !!!

In a Windows Workgroup local area network environment, sometimes when you access neighborhood computer, it asks for password. Usually there is a guest user as a user name and password is empty to fill in order to access the PC. Now in offices and your private local area network this is not necessary option to have for users. If you disable that, You will no longer be asked for the password to access the neighborhood PC. This can be achieved via tweaking registry entries a bit.

-Click Start > Run > compmgmt.msc (or right click at My Computer icon at desktop and select manage)
- Under Local Users and Groups select Users
- In the right side, right click Guest and go to properties
- Check "Account is disabled" option
- You are done

Now whenever you will click the PC present in workgroup, it will not ask for login.
Thanks.
