Set up logon

Use the
Logon
tab to set up how Windows logon behaves, and make changes to the DeskLock data file to prevent users from shutting down the computer or switching to other tasks.
TIP:
  • Changes you make here take effect immediately upon closing the Microsoft Management Console. If you need to restart your computer to enable other changes, you will be prompted to do so.
  • To bypass the automatic logon procedure, press and hold the
    Shift
    key down while Windows is starting up.
  • If your computer joins a domain after setting up the logon, the automatic Windows logon may not work. You will need to set up the logon password again.
To set up logging onto Windows
  1. To perform Windows logon automatically, select the
    Automatically Logon to Windows
     check box, and enter the password.
  2. Open the Microsoft Management Console for DeskLock and select your options.
  3. In the Microsoft Management Console, open the folder containing the options you need to set up. The location of the options varies between different operating systems.
  4. Double-click an item you want to enable.
  5. In the
    Property
    page that opens, select the
    Enabled
    option, and click
    OK
    . The
    Property
    page closes and returns you to the list. The Setting for the command you have just enabled now reads Enabled.
  6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 for each item you need to set up, and then close the Console to return to the
    Logon
    tab.
