A while back I discovered the "NoLogon" registry mod that disables the escape in the Windows logon. http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/629/
This has worked fine for one customer for several months. I recently used the mod on a shared workstation for another customer.
Sometime today, some glitch in the logon caused Windows to reboot for some of the user accounts even when they typed the correct password. I'm using Windows Family Login to display a list of login accounts.
I should have re-read the original article, because I must have created some accounts after modifying the registry. I can delete HKU\.Default\software\Microsoft\Windows\Run\NoLogi n for the Default user and any user I can successfully log in as. Is there any way to access HKU\username for an account other than the one I used to log in?
I assume I can brute force it by backing up the Windows\profiles folder and OE Identities and deleting and re-creating the user login with Control_Panel->users Thanks
