Tacio Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 After installation windows offer to add new user account... i don't want to add new account - i want to login with existing administrator account without adding new account. How i can do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simply_simon Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Easy this one!In your autologon.reg file put:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]"DefaultUserName"="Administrator""DefaultPassword"="password""AutoAdminLogon"="1"Change password to whatever your admin password is!Hope this helps!~SIMON~PS Just to add, you put the autologon.reg file in your %OEM%\Install folder. I call mine from RunOnceEx.cmd just add the following command somewhere:REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\Install\autologon.regIMPORTANT: Make sure that the autologon.reg file is deleted after installation or your admin password is visible!!!

Tacio Posted February 26, 2005 Author Share Posted February 26, 2005 and how i can put this settings in registry before appearance window with adding new user acount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simply_simon Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Think you could also add it to the cmdlines.txt file under [COMMANDS]but I am not sure how to add a REGEDIT command. I think it would be:"REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%/Install/autologon.reg"Someone correct me please!!~SIMON~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacio Posted February 26, 2005 Author Share Posted February 26, 2005 hm.. i think there... If i add this lines in my winnt.sif it's help me?[UserData] FullName="Administrator" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simply_simon Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 No. FullName is just the name of the computer. Maybe I should outline all from the start...1. Edit WINNT.SIF and change or add the command below to the section [unattended]:OemPreinstall=YesIf it's already there don't change it.2. If you don't already have a $OEM$ Folder you need to add one. Make a new folder in the root directory of your windows installation and call it $OEM$3. In this folder you need a text file called cmdlines.txt4. In cmdlines.txt type or paste this:[COMMANDS]"REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%/Install/autologon.reg"5. Create a folder inside $OEM$ and call it $1 and one inside that folder called Install. Inside this folder you need to place autologon.reg as I outlined above.cmdlines.txt executes commands during the last 12 minutes of setup and so reg settings are copied before windows starts.Try it and see if it works.~SIMON~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simply_simon Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Not yet had the pleasure of activation yet, only work with volume license. I found this link for activation on MSFN site:http://unattended.msfn.org/intermediate/activate.htmHave you used Setup Manager to create WINNT.SIF? If you haven't you maybe should read this page too!http://unattended.msfn.org/beginner/winnt_sif.htmOn The XP corp version I'm writing for, as soon as I boot Windows for the first time, It's not only signed in but there's no security center either (Apart from warnings about Antivirus not being present, which will not show if you install antivirus during install). There are plenty of tips on the MSFN site that seem to cover most of the aspects of Setup. It's just a case of looking around and finding what your looking for. And if you don't find it by looking around, just do what I did and start from the beginning again! You'll be surprised what you missed when you look over it a second time!~SIMON~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
