    Computer Freezes on Windows Main Screen!?!

    IF YOU USED AUTO ADMIN LOGON:
    regedit.exe
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    SOFTWARE
    Microsoft
    Windows NT
    CurrentVersion
    Winlogon

    In the defaultpassword entry, your password should be there.

    Hi Khaled,

    It is possible that you .exe is not working due to corrupted system files or account. To assist you better, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Does this happen with a specific application or with all of your application?
    • Have you tried creating a new admin account to check if the issue also with new account or only with the current account?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you follow the steps in this article on how
    to create a new admin account.

    What is Windows Logon Application or winlogon.exe?

    Not able to install exe file created in WINDEV application

    Since you mentioned that the application worked in a previous version of Windows, we would like to clarify if you attempted to install the application using compatibility mode as was suggested in the previous post? The reason we need to verify if you have
    completed the steps provided is because compatibility mode allows older programs to work in a more recent version of Windows. Also we need the answers to the following questions below:

    • Were there any newer versions of the application you're attempting to install that is made for windows 10?
    • Which version and build of Windows 10 do you have installed in the computer?

    Regards.
