Windows 10: Autologin shows login screen in passing

There's my faster computer and there's my slightly slower one. Both are set to auto-login. Strangely enough, during boot-up on the faster one, I see all four of the icons on my old sign-in screen long enough to count them, while on the slower comp, I don't even get a glimmer of that sign-in screen in passing. Anyone have an explanation to offer for this, and maybe, just maybe, a remedy? Pro 20H2 both.

windows 10 autologin problem

I work for IT for a college and have been having a problem with autologin (through domain accounts) not consistently working. We had it on some of our windows 10 (1507) computers and last month it suddenly just stopped. Ever since then I have been having
problems getting it working. I have tried the registry method (defaultusername / defaultpassword, etc) and the sysinternals autologin program. After doing either of these I will restart and the computer will not autologin- after booting up I will get to the
login screen and the username of what I tried to autologin with will appear on the left beneath the last logged in account. If i click on it the username field will ask for a microsoft email to login with (have to click on sign-in options and change it to
domain login).

I have read all kinds of articles online trying to fix this but nothing is working. I have updated machines to 1607 or 1803, deleted the autologoncount registry value, disabled wifi adapter when possible, have made account a local admin, took machines off
our domains then have readded - nothing will work.

The only way I have been able to get machines to autologin is to reimage them with one of our SCCM images (which is on 1607) and use the autologin tool within the first couple logins. Really looking for suggestions on how to get autologin back working without
having to go this route.

 

Timed autologin or autologin override

Is there a way to set a timed autologin for MSWin 10? I know you can do an immediate autologin, but nothing for a
delayed login (such as waiting 10 seconds to allow you to select a different user). It shouldn't be that hard, Linux has been able to do this for
YEARS now, under multiple display/login managers.

Barring that (if MS' code is so crufty they can't do a timed login) then how about a way to force it to bypass the autologin.
Supposedly you could hold the shift key at startup and it would let you do this, but like much of the rest of MSWin this is broken/non-functional.
