In, 10.10, how do I disable Ubuntu User Login Window


I don't have Login Window, the usual means access by System > Administration > Login Window.

You will have to enable Login Window in System > Preferences > Menu then and then make your changes.

Go into the menu and enable it by placing a tick in the selection box. Of course I'm assuming you're using Gnome not Unity.

There should be a "Main Menu" in Preferences, if it isn't Ubuntu has removed it to stop people playing around, which is highly likely.
