Unattended autologin for Microsoft Networking

Greetings,

Evertime when I start up my Win Me PC, I encountered the following msg:

Enter your network password for Microsoft Networking
User name: XXX
Password:

I have no password implemented and I click OK everytime on the Microsoft Networking prompt.

I have a remote admin software running on the Win Me PC. Suppose I restart the PC remotely with the remote admin software, how do I enable an Unattended autologin for Microsoft Networking when the PC restart so that the system can get to the desktop screen which will autorun the remote admin and I can remote control this PC again.

Appreciate anyone can give me the detailed instructions.

TIA

Configure the Logon to be Windows Logon, not Network logon. This can be found in Control Panel/Network.

Yaroslav_Buzko, your easiest solution works as the remote admin menu configuration's automatic start up mode configures itself to run as a service when windows start. It indeed alters the registry key in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices

adamdrayer, thanks for the elaborate instructions. I will look further into this method if the need arises in the future.

crissand, I'm using peer to peer file and printer sharing so I reckon I will have to rely on Microsoft Networking instead of Windows logon.

Thanks all for the valuable feedbacks.

Don't bother. It works fine for workgroup network access without password.
