Bypass NT Ctrl Alt Del to Logon

Keywords: 	 autologon Ctrl Alt Del

Question:

Is it possible to get rid of the ctrl-alt-del when NT starts up? I still need the logon (so cannot use the autologon as suggested in the tech database), but the ctrl-alt-del is annoying. Any chances?

Answer:

This will sett you up for autologgin

UserName = "username"
Password = "password"

RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[AutoAdminLogon]", "1")
RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[DefaultUserName]", UserName)
RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[DefaultPassword]", Password)
RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[LegalNoticeCaption]", "")
RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[LegalNoticeText]", "")
RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[DontDisplayLastUserName]", "0")
This will return you back to manual loggin

RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[AutoAdminLogon]", "0")
RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[DefaultUserName]", "")
RegSetValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[DefaultPassword]", "")
