Windows 10: Windows 10 default login method set to local / domain

I am currently trying to implement the following configuration for the Windows 10 login as part of a project. The last logged in user will not be remembered for security reasons done and at login the option Local / Domain Login should be displayed as default. The use of Microsoft accounts e.g. for Office 365 should not be restricted. But at the moment the login with Microsoft Account is shown as default. I have already tried the following settings: Local / Domain as standard methodThere is only the option to select "Password" as the default method. This excludes smartcard as default. But Mic

Setting the default input method for the Windows 10 login screen

I had the same question but with French being the default on Windows 10 rather than the one I wanted so I ended up here.

HoD is very close. I was able to use his suggestion to find the solution for me. This solution uses your current display and input language to change the Welcome screen and possible for new user accounts if you want. So make sure you have the display and input settings while logged in that you want to apply to the login screen before doing the steps:

1. Click the language on the Taskbar.
   
2. Then click Language preferences.
   
3. At the bottom under "Related settings," click "additional date, time, & regional settings" which opens the control panel
   
4. Click the "Region" option
   
5. Then go to the far right tab "Administrative". (HoD's step 2)
   
6. In the "Welcome screen and new user accounts" click copy settings. (HoD's step 3)
   
7. Tick "Welcome screen and system accounts" (and "new user accounts" if you want it to be applied to those as well). (HoD's step 4)
   
8. Click Ok. (HoD's step 5)
   

I was able to use HoD's suggestion to find the solution here. It's for Windows 8.1, but works on 10 so far.

Hope it will help you, too!

 

Setting the default input method for the Windows 10 login screen

The accepted solution from user Ender might not work because it lacks a final step.

As the answer from user Alexander Davidenko states, there is another option that will automatically revert the changes you just made if you only follow Ender's answer.

To counter this automatic reversion:

1. Do every step from Ender's solution (8 steps)
   
2. Type Windows key + R to open the "Run" window.
   
3. Input "gpedit.msc" and hit enter to open "Local Group Policy Editor".
   
4. In the left tree view, select Local Group Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates
   
5. On the right pane, open System > Local Services
   
6. Modify the setting "Disallow copying of user input methods to the system account for sign-in" to Enabled.
   

You should finally be able to use your current keyboard layout as a default input method in the Welcome screen!

 

Local login visible on domain PC Windows 1903

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



The issue could happen if Enumerate local users on domain joined computers is configured. I would suggest you to disable the same and check if it works. Refer to thread
Windows 10 Domain Users On Login Screen
for more information on the same.



Note:

Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry
if a problem occurs. To backup and restore registry key, refer to this
link.



However, if the issue persists, I suggest you to post your query in the
TechNet Forums, where we have support professionals well equipped with the knowledge on domain
computers.
