Just gave it a try here, same reg edits we used in XP seem to work in Windows 7. HKLM>Software>Microsoft>WindowsNT>Winlogon Add any string values that don't exist in the following list: Change "DefaultUserName" to desired account Change "DefaultPassword" to correct value Change "DefaultDomainName" to correct value Change AutoAdminLogon to "1" Change ForceAutoLogon to "1" Dennis

Microsoft seems to have gone out of their way to prevent you from being able to auto-logon in a domain environment.

I swore I did this at my last job... ________________________________ From: Stefan Jafs [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 20, 2009 2:16 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Windows 7 Yeah, I know "What's my username again", if it does not come up as usual, if someone else logged in, helpdesk gets the call! ___________________________________ Stefan Jafs From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 20, 2009 3:04 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Windows 7 Yeah... Well in XP, you can use TweakUI, but that's been discontinued beginning with Vista. And, yes... it does make things a bit less secure, but I have a couple machines that need to auto-logon due to the users lack of computer literacy. Both are in "out of the way" areas and neither user has any special access...

Makes network access a bit un-secure! ___________________________________ Stefan Jafs From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 20, 2009 2:27 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Windows 7 Anyone been able to figure out how to get Windows 7 (in a Windows Server 2003) Active Directory to auto-logon? I've tried several things suggested here and things I've found on the web, but nothing works... still prompts for a username/password.
