Autologon in XP pro
This is a discussion about Autologon in XP pro in the Customization Tweaking category; I have one user at my log on screen and this user is not password protected. My machine would automatically log this user on until I installed some borland developement apps. Apparently the install process created another user.

Apparently the install process created another user. This user is not shown at the login screen but I can see it though the user managment console. This is the only thing that could have effected the autologon.
How can I get the autologln functional again.

This might help
Thanks! I'll try that when I get off work.
Any idea where the setting is in TweakUI? I believe I have looked there before but with no luck

It's under login->autologin. I'm not sure if it's only in the newer tweakui or not. To get it, search for powertoys on microsoft's site.
It's a registry setting as well.
Look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon for the following strings:
AutoAdminLogon = 1
DefaultUserName = username
DefaultPassword = password
DefaultDomain = computer name or domain
Hope this helps.
