How to turn on automatic logon in Windows - Windows 10

Summary

This article describes how to configure Windows to automate the logon process by storing your password and other pertinent information in the registry database. By using this feature, other users can start your computer and use the account that you establish to automatically log on. 

Important The autologon feature is provided as a convenience. However, this feature may be a security risk. If you set a computer for autologon, anyone who can physically obtain access to the computer can gain access to all the computer's contents, including any networks it is connected to. Additionally, when autologon is turned on, the password is stored in the registry in plain text. The specific registry key that stores this value can be remotely read by the Authenticated Users group. This setting is recommended only for cases in which the computer is physically secured and steps have been taken to make sure that untrusted users cannot remotely access the registry.

Use Registry Editor to turn on automatic logon

Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, 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. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

How to format USB - use same commands if you don't see full capacity of your USB or flash drive

When re-formatting the "drive" you're actually only formatting a partition on the drive. You need to use the diskpart utility to remove the partitions and create 1 single partition covering the full volume.

diskpart can be a bit dangerous, because if you pick the wrong disk or partition, you can remove data or partitions that are extremely, EXTREMELY important and lose all data on your machine.

Proceed with extreme caution!

Open up a command prompt as administrator (open the start menu, type cmd and press Enter.)

Type diskpart and press Enter. You'll end up with a new prompt that looks like this:

DISKPART>

Type

list disk <ENTER>

and you'll get a listing of all drives on your machine.

Type

select disk # <ENTER>

to select a disk, where # is the number of the disk Windows screw-balled. Usually, the device is disk 1, but it's always best to make sure.

Then type

list partition <ENTER>

to get a listing of all partitions on the disk.

If you're sure you have the right disk/partition, you can then repeat typing

select partition # <ENTER>
delete partition <ENTER>

until all partitions are removed from that drive.

Once the drive is empty, exit diskpart and remove the drive. Wait at least 5 minutes, then re-insert the drive. DO NOT CLICK FORMAT – this will most likely re-create the problem. Instead, enter diskpart again, and select the disk. Then type

create partition primary <ENTER>

Once you have created the partition, exit diskpart and, in the command promt, type

diskmgmt.msc <ENTER>

This will provide a reliable way to create a FAT32 partition. On the drive you would like to format (NEVER TOUCH DISK 0!), right click and select format. The allocation unit size option should be default, and the File System option should be set to FAT32. The format may take a while, depending on the disk size, be patient.

This should fix partition troubles on any readable USB flash drive.

How to transfer files from one pc to onther windows 7 or 8

Transferring Files

If your new Windows 8.1 computer is the latest in a line of computers you’ve used at home or at work, it’s likely that you have files you’d like to transfer from one computer to another. How do you move the things you most need to be able to carry on your work? You have a few options:

• Use Windows Easy Transfer.
• Save the files to Microsoft SkyDrive or another online storage space.
• Add both computers to your home network and transfer files from one to the other.

You’ll learn about saving files to Microsoft SkyDrive, setting up a home network, and establishing a Homegroup in Chapter 12, “Working in the Clouds,” so this section focuses on using Windows Easy Transfer to move files and folders from your old computer to your new one.

Transferring Programs

The process for moving programs from one computer to another sometimes involves uninstalling the program on one computer and installing it on the new one, due to the licensing issues involved in legal copies of software you might have purchased. Some programs enable you to log in to your account online and download the software from the company’s website. Be sure to gather the following information from programs on your old PC before you uninstall the programs:

• Your user ID and password
• Your software registration number
• Any toll-free numbers or websites related to the software
• Any identifying information that shows your legitimate ownership of the software

Using Windows Easy Transfer

Windows Easy Transfer transfers files, settings, Internet favorites, email, and more from your old computer to your new one. Before you begin using the utility, log in to both computers as an administrator and make sure both have Windows Easy Transfer installed. (If not, you can download the tool from the Microsoft Downloads site.)

Begin by using Windows Easy Transfer on your old computer to prepare a transfer file that you can then install on your new Windows 8.1 PC. Then, when you have saved the transfer file (you can use these steps for both computers), add the transferred files to your computer by following these steps:

1. On your existing computer, search for Windows Easy Transfer.
2. Tap or click it in the results list.

3. Skip past the Welcome to Windows Easy Transfer screen by clicking Next; on the next screen, choose Yes to tell Windows 8.1 you have the files from your old computer ready to transfer. The Open an Easy Transfer File dialog box appears.
   

   Click to view larger image
4. Choose the drive where your file is stored.
5. Select the folder containing the file.
6. Tap or click the file and click Open. Windows. This makes the connection and begins copying the files from one system to another (if you elected to transfer files over your network). When the transfer process is complete, your files will be installed and ready to use on your Windows 8.1 PC.

Checking Administrator Status

To make sure you’re logged in as the administrator, type User Accounts on the Windows 8.1 Start screen; then tap or click User Accounts. Your user account appears, listing the account type assigned to your account. If you need to change the setting, click or tap Change Your Account Type and select Administrator. Then click or tap Change Account Type to save your change.

>>>Go Further: Choosing the Right Transfer Method

Windows Easy Transfer gives you three ways to transfer your files, depending on the type of setup you have and how you want to copy the files:

• If you bought an Easy Transfer cable when you purchased your computer, you can use it to connect the two systems you’ll be using to transfer the files. (Note that this is not a standard Universal Serial Bus [USB] cable. You can purchase an Easy Transfer cable online or by visiting your local electronics store.)
• If you’ve set up a home network and both computers are part of the network, you can transfer files as easily as you would copy them from one folder to another. You learn more about home networks in Chapter 12.
• You can also use a USB flash drive or an external hard drive to store the file Windows Easy Transfer prepares for you. You can then move the flash drive or external hard drive to the new computer and transfer the files.
