Logon without Name or Password
This setting allows Windows clients to logon without entering a user name or password, therefore bypassing the logon box.
Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Create a new String Value, and name it 'Default Password'.
Modify the data of 'Default Password' to match the default users password.
The default username is stored at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon - Username
Reboot and the system should automatically logon.
Note: The password is stored in clear text, therefore anyone with access to the registry can see the default password!
Remove Logon Screen
Whether or not you're on a local area network, odds are you don't really need the little logon (login) screen asking for your username and password that comes up when starting Windows95.
To remove this prompt, follow these directions:
If you don't have multiple users configured:
Open Control Panel, and double-click on the Network icon.
From the list entitled Primary Network Logon:, choose Windows Logon, and press OK.
Note: If this doesn't work, make sure you didn't initially configure a password for yourself. If you did, Windows95 will always require it. Double-click on the Passwords icon in Control Panel to choose nothing (leave it blank) for your password.
If you do have multiple users configured:
Run the Registry Editor and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ Network\ Logon.
Double-click on the Process Logon Script value, and change the data from 0000 00 to 0000 01
