MtK Posted September 18, 2004 Posted September 18, 2004 Hi,How can I cancel User Logon, in an unattended installation?
Stanislavs Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Can you explain what are you trying to say? I dont quite understand.
MtK Posted September 24, 2004 Author Posted September 24, 2004 I'm talking about Win98SE autologon, is it possible?
Stanislavs Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 I dont know if i understood it right, but if you want to cancel the NORMAL logon, go to My Computer, Control Panel, Users . Then delete the usernames if you dont want to log in each time you start WIndows. But maybe it's something else...
MtK Posted September 25, 2004 Author Posted September 25, 2004 @StanislavsYou understood right, & your idea might work, but only after Windows is completly installed & functional...I wnat to do this even before the first login...
Stanislavs Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Oh, i just figured out! After you install Windows, there is a logon screen.Now hear: If you type a usernam and password, Windows will save it for the next time. To avoid that , just press Esc or Cancel and it will not prompt you for loggon next time you start Windows. P.S. im taking over the forum
MtK Posted September 25, 2004 Author Posted September 25, 2004 About the ESC, It works. but yet again:It's not unattendedly...About taking over the Forum - GOOD LUCK...
Stanislavs Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 But why you especially dont like the first logon screen? You can just start windows and delete usernames. P.S. click refresh on the Windows 95/98/ME page.
MtK Posted September 25, 2004 Author Posted September 25, 2004 I didn't say I don't like it...I just don't want it...I'm the only user on the PC, so I have no need for that...P.S: You are crazy... keep up the good work... (by replying answer not more questions)
Stanislavs Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 But like i said, you can cancel logon through control panel by deleting users
MtK Posted September 25, 2004 Author Posted September 25, 2004 There's nothing unattended or automaticly by doing this from the Control Panel...Control Panel is active only after windows is installed & running...
Stanislavs Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 But how come you have logon window without Windows ???
prathapml Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 MtK, since you use MSBATCH.INF for unattended install, just try exploring around the tool which creates it (Batch98, I think - in resource Kit folder on Win98 CD). There is a value that allows auto-logon into the default user's account every-time. Maybe it was un-documented...Otherwise, there's another option:Try monitoring the registry using RegShot.Take a registry snap before the "automatic login of a single user every-time" gets activated, and one after. Comparing the two should tell you which registry values are used for this. The MSBATCH creator allows integrating registry (.REG) files. Any clarifications, you're welcome to ask.
MtK Posted September 26, 2004 Author Posted September 26, 2004 @prathapmlI think RegShot could be a good idea since I didn't find any clue about autologon in Batch98...The question is how would I take a Reg-Shot before logon?
