Hi CSharpLeader, On bit Windows, portions of the registry entries are stored separately for bit application and bit applications and mapped into separate logical registry views using the registry redirector and registry reflection , because the bit version of an application may use different registry keys and values than the bit version.

Sheng, Thanks for the links under "just not in this forum" but unfortunately NONE of those links answer my question. Thanks again for the help, Ralph Malph. Thanks to all of those who have tried to help :- and a "pox" to MS for not trying and obviously not caring, This is the closest I have found to the answer so far. I am still in the process of testing it. What I have found so far is that I am able to change the log on prompt to what ever I want using the following two reg settings I am in the process of researching what this value represents and how to control it.

It is a cryptic item so it may take a while to crack it. So far hers is what I have done to test. I did not change nor delete the "Provider" value. After reboot the prompt read exactly what I wanted, YEA!!!! But then something flashed real fast past the screen about not finding a "student" listed and then it logged me off. I believe that this is related to the "Provider" value, what ever that realy represent not being correct for that user.

Great to hear that this is working for you. I have not had a lot of time to do a lot of testing on this yet so I haven't investigated the LastLoggedOnProvider value. There is not much information on this at all. There doesn't appear to be a list of values to use for the providers anywhere so I'm not sure where one would get other provider values but least this is not important for logging into a domain or local machine.

Also if you are changing to logon in with a local account, especially with a script or reg file, you can use the period ". Also the back slash character needs to be escaped with another back slash in the string in order for this to be used in a. I think the local machine name will replace the ".

At least this works to logon into a machine with a local account and you can't remember the exact machine name. If I remember correctly, the security permissions for running. You may need to use the Sysinternals tool Shell Runas to runas a user with permission to the remote server:. Thanks for posting the. Its nice to finally have a working solution for this issue and that your tests have been successful.
