I've found the registry method to work better if you don't have a default domain and you put the domain into the user name (either as below or using the UPN)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "AutoAdminLogon"="1" "DefaultUserName"="mydomain\domain account" -"DefaultDomainName" "DefaultPassword"="MyPassword" From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Denzik, Josh Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2014 9:02 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [MDT-OSD] AutoLogon With Domain Account in Task Sequence for Windows 7 SP1 x64 All, I am having some trouble getting my machines to autologon with Windows 7 SP1 x64. 1st Method: The AutoLogon 3.01 Utility(Sysinternals Tool) is copied to a folder and referenced via command line to set the parameters in the task sequence: cmd.exe /c c:\windows\autologon\autologon.exe user domain password Result: It comes up to the logon screen and never tries to logon. The AutoAdminLogon is set to 0. (This method works on x86 flawlessly.) 2nd Method I import this RegKey Via Command Line in the Task sequence: cmd.exe /c REG IMPORT AutoLogonx64.reg See Below: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "AutoAdminLogon"="1" "DefaultUserName"="domain account" "DefaultDomainName"="mydomain" "DefaultPassword"="MyPassword" Result: Again comes up to the logon screen and does not automatically login. Once again the AutoAdminLogon is set to 0. If I log into windows and set AutoAdminLogon and then reboot the machine it automatically logs in. It appears that something is not getting set correctly in the registry. Is this because of it being x64 or is SCCM setting something and overriding my task? Does anyone have any suggestions to accomplish this? It must be done with a domain account.
