Winlogon Configuration Tool Description

Winlogon Configuration Tool is a small Windows application whose purpose is to help you alter some of the settings of the Winlogon process. The adjustments affect the automatic logon feature, logon dialog options, and Windows File Protection (WFP) mode. The Winlogon component is responsible for loading the user profile on logon and requesting the authentication parameters (username and password).The advantages of being portableThe tool comes wrapped in a portable package which can be deployed on your system by simply running the executable file and bypassing the installation process. What’s more, you may copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices and carry it with you. The utility doesn’t leave traces in your Windows registry so you may get rid of it by simply deleting the files that you have grabbed from the Internet. Simple looksWinlogon Configuration Tool delivers a clean layout that coincides with the configuration panel. All tweaking parameters are embedded in the main window. The application operates on local and remote computers and allows you to save the current settings to a file and hide the password characters while typing. Configuration settingsWinlogon Configuration Tool entitles you to set up the default username, password and domain and make some changes to the logon dialog, namely activate a shutdown or reboot session from the logon panel and hide last logged data. When it comes to altering the automatic logon mode, you can enable several options, such as default user and ‘Shift’ key to bypass the automatic logon session. In addition, you may force settings to be saved across reboots, show options in the logon panel, and use only the ‘Ctrl+Alt-Delete’ hotkey combination in order to log on. What’s more, you are allowed to pick the default user session application and shell program, run logon script synchronously, allow multiple logon sessions, disable lock workstation, and automatically restart shell utility. You may disable real-time file protection and limit the DLL cache. Bottom line All things considered, Winlogon Configuration Tool integrates a handy feature package meant to perform several tweaks. On the downside, it hasn’t been updated for a long time, so it may cause compatibility issues especially on newer operating systems. Reviewed by Ana Marculescu, last updated on December 8th, 2014
