    Unable set auto login (W10 home 20H2 build 19042.572)


    I wish to set auto login (for both start-up as well as resume from standby/suspend) on Windows 10 home, 20H2 build 19042.572 version, as well as remove the lock screen.

    The user account is administrator and the password is blank.

    At this point I have removed the lock screen by creating

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software/Policies/Microsoft/Windows/Personalization/NoLockScreen=1

    however, the sign-in button screen is still offered (which is meaningless as the password is blank.)

    From what searching I've done (including on www.tenforums.com), I expected to find an option in netplwiz (as has existed in prior windows versions) or in settings>sign-in options>. Neither has an option that lets me set auto login-in behavior. I also tried recommendation in posting 11129 (powercfg as administrator); these did not alter the current behavior.

    I am uncertain as to where I should post this, so please move the posting to the appropriate place in tenforums.

    Thank you.

    :)

    20H2 Netplwiz no longer has auto login

    Just updated to 20H2 on a new build and when I ran Netplwiz there is no option for auto login. There is no option to turn on/off Hello anymore either.

    Any idea if we will still be able to auto login anymore?
