Re: start program on connection profile loading?

No. You cannot logon without loading a profile.
What is it that you really want to accomplish? Why do you want to
prevent loading a profile?

Hi Benny,

I would *strongly* recommend against removing userinit.exe
from the registry. It will break logons from both the console
and via TS, whether a starting program is specified or not.

Depending on if the machine has firewall enabled or has
various non-TS remote functions locked down you may need
to boot to a recovery environment to recover from the change.
Safe mode and last known good will not work. Likewise I
am not sure that a repair install will fix the issue either.

This one small registry change could lead to many hours of
troubleshooting and possibly a complete reinstall/restore
depending on how knowledgable the tech is.

Yes, the profile is still loaded even if only one program is
started. Userinit.exe is responsible for this. You can search
for Userinit.exe in the Registry and remove the execution on
user logon, but this is not recommended because Userinit does
some initialization besides loading the profile.
