AnswerAutomatic Logon with Windows Server 2003 Sp2

    Good morning!!!
    To enable the functionality of automatic logon of the user when power to the server is resored after power failure, I have done the required setting in the Regedit by changing the default user name, pasword, autoadminlogon etc. Since with windows server 2003, while shutting down user has to enter the comments for the same.  Also, if server was shutdown abruptly because of power failure, use has to enter the reason of shutdown in the event tracer during next login. Because of this Automatic logon feature does not work as required.
    Kindly suggest how to change the event tracer setting so that for such cases windows login with the default comment.

    Regards,

    Tejas Shah

    Hi Tejas,

    According to your description, I understand that you want to change event tracer setting so that Windows can automatic login with the default comment.

    To disable the event tracer or custom Options for Identifying a Shutdown Cause, you can refer to the below KB article:

    Hope it helps.
