Hi, we use autologin here for some public access machines / locked down machines for various purposes, the problem I have is small but annoying. In XP, I could set DefaultDomainName DefaultUserName AutoAdminLogon ForceAutoLogon DefaultPassword In a custom ADM or a startup script and the computer would autologin on the first boot after applying the policy. In Vista / 7 a second boot is required for the values to be picked up, seems as though the values aren't set until after windows has already read in what it needs. So is there a way to force the login without needing a second boot, we use various scripts to apply the policies and doing an extra reboot makes things trickier Thanks
