Afterdawn Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 When my unattended installation finishes, a batch file is executed so that the user can enter a password in order to auto-logon the computer. However this password is saved in plain text in the registry (DefaultPassword under the Winlogon key).If you use TweakUI to auto-logon your Windows, then the password is encrypted.Off course I want to this without TweakUI, in an unattended manner.How do I do this? I can't seem to figure out how TweakUI saves this encrypted password.I realize that the password inputted by the user needs to be encrypted by some command-line tool (md5.exe) or something like that.Note: I do not want to use the "encryptedadminpassword" entry in the winnt.sif file, because the password is not static. (Neither is autologon supported this way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
