Windows XP Autologon

It's been a while but needed this information for a project I'm running. How to make sure Windows XP autologs in.

Through Registry

  • Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
  • Locate the following registry key:
    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
  • Double-click the DefaultDomain entry, type your domain name, and then click OK.
  • Double-click the DefaultUserName entry, type your account user name, and then click OK.
  • Double-click the DefaultPassword entry, type your account password under the Value Data box, and then click OK.

If there is no DefaultPassword value, create the value. To do this, follow these steps:

  • In Registry Editor, click Edit, click New, and then click String Value.
  • Type DefaultPassword as the value name, and then press Enter.
  • Double-click the newly created key, and then type your password in the Value Data box.
Note:DefaultPassword registry entry does not exist, Windows XP automatically changes the value of the AutoAdminLogonregistry key from 1 (true) to 0 (false) to turn off the AutoAdminLogon feature after the computer restarts.

* Double-click the AutoAdminLogon entry, type 1 in the Value Data box, and then click OK.

If there is no AutoAdminLogon entry, create the entry. To do this, follow these steps:

  • In Registry Editor, click Edit, click New, and then click String Value.
  • Type AutoAdminLogon as the value name, and then press Enter.
  • Double-click the newly created key, and then type 1 in the Value Data box.
  • Exit Registry Editor.
  • Click Start, click Restart, and then click OK.
