How to create a local Administrator account

[43.onsomeday]

Current Situation: After installing Windows, a black screen displays "Other User" with a form for entering ID and password.

Actions Taken:

1. Applied local user creation as default or enabled in unattended setup.
2. In unattended mode, skipped the EULA page and applied it as default or enabled.
3. Checked "Use BypassNRO".

Issue:I don't know what the problem is.

Please attach your preset, after removing any user passwords or license key.

Although a user password or product key was not entered, a form to enter other user IDs and passwords is displayed.

Additional Question:How do I apply an existing unattended response file?

 

[garlin]

Please attach the NTLite preset, not the unattended file. We need to see your image edits.

Is this file correct?

I didn't find any problems in your preset or autounattend.xml.

This is probably an unwanted Lock Screen behavior, since you're using the built-in Administrator account as your autologon. By default, Lock Screen will display the last user who logged on.

During OOBE, Windows creates a temporary user account (defaultuser0) to help provision user apps. This account is logged on, but no longer needed after OOBE is finished. Lock Screen will report defaultuser0 as "Other User". To fix this problem, we need to stop displaying the last logon user.

1. Copy this text to a .reg file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"DontDisplayLastUserName"=dword:00000001

2. From the Registry page, Add your new reg file. Apply changes to the image.

There is no way to import an existing unattend file into your NTLite preset. Just load your preset, and repeat your previous changes in the Unattended page. Now save the preset again.
