Survey: what do you use to create Login scripts

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I have been, in various forms and titles, working in the network
administration field for some 20 years now. But with my previous employer,
I did much less of that and, more on the project management side of things.
Well now after having been "right-sized" I am looking at getting into
network admin again.

In the past I always used traditional batch files for login scripts. And
now I'm wondering if this is still the preferred method. I have done some
VB scripting in the past, but always thought you ended up with many more
lines of code with that method. I know there are some other options our
there like kixtart, but I have only "played" with those, never used them in
production.

What do you use for your login scripts, and why did you choose that option?
