Configure stations for automatic logon

If you want your stations to be available to anyone – and your users do not need private folders to store their personal data or personalized desktops – you can configure the stations for automatic logon. Auto-logon automatically logs on a user account that has been specified in the auto-logon settings when the MultiPoint Services starts.

  1. From the Start screen, open MultiPoint Manager.

  2. Click the Stations tab, and then click the name of the station that you want to configure for auto-logon.

  3. In the right pane, click Configure auto-logon.

    The Configure Auto-Logon page opens.

  4. Select the Auto-logon using the following information check box, and then enter the user account and password to use for auto-logon. Click OK.

    Note

    The user account that you use for auto-logon must have a password.

Note

To temporarily log on to a station that is set up for automatic logon with a different user account, hover over the top right corner of the screen to display a vertical menu, click the Settings charm, click the Power icon, and then hold the SHIFT key and click Disconnect. Hold down the SHIFT key until a logon prompt appears.
