Welcome to Porteus. You can create a new user, and keep your fingers crossed.

Isn't there an option in applications > settings > system settings > startup and shutdown > login screen (sddm) > Advanced tab to disable auto login?

...or you can use this option in menu:you have to login manually.

Thanks this worked. I have manage to create a new user using KUser manager but it does not appear on the logon screen.

Many thanks for your help.

Hi Guys,

Got the user on logon screen now, but the desktop will not load up, ant ideas?
