There are cases whereby you are denied from logging on the the Guest account even after you have enabled it. This is due to a local security policy that prohibits you from using that account to log on locally, even though its enabled.

To allow Guest account to log on locally, follow the steps below.

1. Go to Start then Run.
2. Type in MMC and click OK.
3. In the MMC windows, click on File, Add/Remove Snap-in then Add.
4. Select Group Policy Object Editor from the list and click Add.
5. Click Finish in the Select Group Policy Object window.
6. In the Add/Remove Snap-in window, click OK.
7. In the MMC console, expand Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > User Rights Management.
8. On the right panel, right click on Deny log on locally and select Properties.
9. Select Guest on the user list and click on Remove.
10. Click OK and exit the MMC window.
