Dave-Thanks for the reply, I see the line you refer to, it does have the
logon name, but there is no entry which mentions a password other than
passwordexpirywarning REG_DWORD 0x0000000e (14) Should I just add
"DefaultPassword REG_SZ Password"? Would this be a key, binary value,
string value or DWORD value? Assuming this works, I gather I would then
enter "Password" on boot, but how would it know then not to ask for
"Password" at boot?
