auto logon with tweakui 1

[NCOELHO]

I used powertoys tweakui and i turned on auto login. This works the first time i reboot but for some reason windows resets the registery and im back to a login the next time. Is there any way to stop this from happening.
Thanks

I wrote a script a while back to configure this:

'==========================================================================

' NAME: AutoLoginConfig.vbs

' USAGE:   Login as the ID to be set for auto login and execute this script.
'
'==========================================================================

on error resume next
Dim WshNetwork, strDomainName, path
Set WshNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
Set WSHShell = Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
path = "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\"
strDomainName = WshNetwork.UserDomain
strUserName = WshNetwork.UserName
AdminPassword = InputBox("Enter Admin Password","Password?")
WSHShell.RegWrite path & "AutoAdminLogon","1","REG_DWORD"
WSHShell.RegWrite path & "DefaultUserName",strUsername,"REG_SZ"
WSHShell.RegWrite path & "DefaultDomainName",strDomain,"REG_SZ"
WSHShell.RegWrite path & "DefaultPassword",AdminPassword,"REG_SZ"

If Msgbox("Do you wish to lock the screen after startup?", vbYesNo, "Security Risk!") = vbYes Then
	Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
	strStartup = WSHShell.SpecialFolders("Startup")
	Set ts = fso.CreateTextFile(strStartup & "\lock.txt", ForWriting)
		ScriptCode = "Set WSHShell = Wscript.CreateObject("& Chr(34) & "WScript.Shell" & Chr(34) & ")" & vbCrLf
		ScriptCode = ScriptCode & "WSHShell.Run("& Chr(34) & "rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkstation" & Chr(34) & ")"
	ts.write ScriptCode
	ts.close
	WScript.Sleep 1000
	fso.MoveFile (strStartup & "\lock.txt"),(strStartup & "\lock.vbs")
End If



If err then
	msgbox "Error Encountered"
Else
	msgbox "Auto Login Configured Successfully"
End if

I hope you find this post helpful.
