  1. How to disable Windows 10 logging out automatically without "regedit"?


    I've been trying to find a solution to disable Windows 10 from logging out automatically into the start menu with the password, but the only answers I found involved something called regedit, which I do not have. Is there any other way?

    :)

    Disable Automatic Updates Button in Windows 10 Build 1607 and 1703

    Hi,

    I have tried the below solution for disabling automatic update for Windows 10 Anniversary Update(Build 1607) and Windows 10 Creators Update(Build 1703)

    • Click Start, click Run, and then type regedit in the Open box.

    • Locate and then click the following key in the registry:
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU

    • Add one of the following settings:

      • Value name: NoAutoUpdate
        Value data: 0 or 1
        • 0: Automatic Updates is enabled (default).
        • 1: Automatic Updates is disabled.
        Registry Value Type: Reg_DWORD

      • Value name: AUOptions
        Value data: 1 to 4
        • 1: Keep my computer up to date has been disabled in Automatic Updates.
        • 2: Notify of download and installation.
        • 3: Automatically download and notify of installation.
        • 4: Automatically download and scheduled installation.
        Registry Value Type: Reg_DWORD

    Refer:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...es-by-using-group-policy-or-registry-settings

    But it does not. It works on Windows 10 Build 1511.

    Any suggests will be helpful.

    Windows 8 Tips and Tricks

    Now that Windows 8 is starting to become available in preview form, I figured a thread on some tweaks we are using would be nice.

    Disable Metro UI
    Spoiler The Metro UI is nice for tablets, but IMO it is useless on a desktop/laptop computer. So I like to disable it.

    • Open Regedit
    • Navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer"
    • Change the RPEnable key from 1 to 0
    • Close Regedit
    • Reboot the PC
    or

    Download the zip file attached to this post and run the registry files to enable or disable the Metro UI. Then reboot the PC.

    This is a user specific setting, so disabling it when logged in as one user will not disable it for other users of the computer.

    How to disable Windows 10 logging out automatically without "regedit"?

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
