This article is about how to skip the Windows login screen on 10-8-7 to achieve automatic login. The editor thinks it is very practical, so share it with you as a reference and follow the editor to have a look.

Compared with previous versions of the operating system, Windows 10 redesigned the lock screen and login interface. Before logging in to the system desktop, the user will first see some useful information in the lock screen interface. But it's troublesome to enter the password over and over again, and sometimes we don't want to log in with the password every time we log in to Windows on 10-8-7 (such as when experimenting with a virtual machine). At this point, automatic login can be implemented based on the selected domain and account type (local or MSA).

Skip the login screen in Windows

This article complements the previous article on how to configure automatic login on Windows 10 using control userpasswords2 or netplwiz, which shows how to use Autologon and registry to skip the Windows 10-8-7 login screen to achieve automatic login.

Configure Windows automatic login using Autologon

Autologon is a lightweight utility provided in Microsoft's Sysinternals tool suite that can be used to invoke and configure Windows built-in and automatic login mechanisms. This tool is similar to Windows's built-in netplwiz tool and allows you to configure local or MSA account credentials directly. The most important advantage of recommending the Autologon tool is that when it saves the account password, the plaintext password entered by the user will be encrypted and then saved to the registry.

After downloading the Autologon tool from here, you can double-click to run it, fill in the account, domain name and password as shown above, and then click Enable to enable it. When the execution is complete, a message is displayed on the screen for the user to confirm that the automatic login mechanism has been successfully configured.

* Note that the autologon tool supports command line operation. Examples are as follows:

Autologon user domain password

Configure Windows automatic login using the registry

1. Use the Windows + R shortcut key to open run-execute regedit to open Registry Editor.

two。 Navigate to the following path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\ Winlogon

3. Set the string value named AutoAdminLogon in the right window to 1 to enable automatic login.

After that, you need to create some additional string values to store the user account credentials for Windows's automatic login on 10-8-7, just create the following string values in Winlogon.

String name string value

DefaultDomainName computer name (local account) or domain name

DefaultUserName user name (refer to C:\ Users\)

DefaultPassword user password

Using the registry way, you need to note that the account password saved in the registry is stored in plain text, and anyone with access to the registry can view and operate it.
