How to start XPe runtime without Log On screen

[Guest]

I build a XPe runtime with only an administrator account. The password is
blank. Under XP Pro the system then starts up without asking for a password,
it goes directly to the desktop. Unter Xpe the system ask for the password
every time I start XPe. Do I need special components to add or what do I have
to do to go directly to the desktop without Log On?

Add the Automatic Logon component, go to the Avanced properties and fill in
the account information.

Start -> run
control userpasswords2

uncheck the "users must enter password checkbox"
Then leave the passwords blank.

Be advised that if you want to share your drive out or allow remote desktop
etc you need a account with a password.

What I did was add a new admin user login (different name than
administrator), make that have a password and use the control
userpasswords2 to set it to default. I then disabled the normal
administrator login.
