Windows autologon
| 23-Jun-2010 | Posted by Sonia Hamilton under Windows |
The only time I use Windows is as a virtual machine “appliance” ie it’s running some application that I have to run, that only runs on Windows. Often I want the VM to just logon automagically; here’s a registry file to do so. Save it as foo.reg and double click on it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon] "DefaultUserName"="sonia" "DefaultPassword"="secret" "AutoAdminLogon"="1"
No rocket science, I’m just blogging it so I don’t have to look it up again…

If you don’t want to keep your user credentials in registry in plain text the Logonexpert could be useful for you.
Great, thanks!
