Default Changing the last logged username displayed at startup

I want to log onto a computer but do not want my name to show up when
someone else logs onto the computer after me. I do not have
administrator privileges. Any way out?
Thanks

You are going to need Administrator level access to do this. You need
access to the Local Security Policy from Administrative Tools.

Talk to the system administrator.

Either ask someone who does have administrative privileges to the
computer to change the system settings, or stop snooping on someone
else's computer.
