Windows 10: v1607: Can't disable last user auto login

Before v1607, I used the gpedit logon script to disable the automatic login of non-passworded accounts. It's been fine for all the time I've been with Win10 since release.
Specifically:
Code: Name: C:\Windows\System32\reg.exe Parem: ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\UserSwitch /V Enabled /T REG_dWORD /D 1 /F[/quote] Since v1607 hit, it has stopped working. So I tried this instead, and the keys/strings were already set as it says so on the guide--so nothing to do there.

Does anyone else have any suggestions? Other than adding a password to this one account or having to type in a username/path to login (this account is for family members). Or did Microsoft bork something again?

How to STOP Auto Login of last user - Windows 10

I agree ... It's a Bug ...

I have a password on the administrator User but not on the other home users ...

But when the computer boots up I do not want to auto login to the last user

 

Can't disable user login

Hi,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.

Are you signed into a Microsoft account? If yes, try converting that account to a local account and check if it helps.

• 
  Press Windows key, type Manage my accounts
  and hit Enter.
  
• 
  Click on sign in with local account instead.
  
• 
  Now, you'll be asked to create a local account. Follow on screen instructions.
  
• 
  Skip the password boxes if you don't want to set a password.
  

Hope this helps. Keep us updated with the status of the issue to continue assisting you further.



Thank you.

 

Hello Robb,

I'm afraid that the only way to stop this is to create a password for the account. You could make it something simple though to make it easy to use.

 

That's what I was afraid of was going to be the only option. Oh well, thanks for the input. They always break one thing and fix another...
